Simple physics by ear

If you listen and assume when he screams he left the railing (poor fella!), how many feet do you believe he was from the surface?

falling

175 feet.

x = 0.5*g*t^2, where t in the time in seconds he screams for.

i counted the scream-splash time to be 7 seconds... that's quite the fall 5t^2 = 245m!:Q

Yeah, it's about 240m by my count. Gravity can be a bitch. 😉 In reality, it'd probably be less as air resistance would slow him down somewhat, but I assume we're ignoring that here.

yeah, fvck gravity. who needs to stay on the surface of the earth, anyway? 😀
