The Dark Knight

Uninjured? That should have killed them

That has always bothered me, too. Also, as much as I loved the interrogation scene, when the Joker told Batman the locations of Dent and Rachel, there's no way he could have realistically known that there would be just enough time for Batman to save one of them but not enough time for the police to save the other.

That said, still one of my favorite movies.

I always took it as Joker set it up where opening one door to save one detonated the other.

Always took it as the cape material slowed their fall and that the outfit absorbed the bulk of the impact.

I'm more disturbed that at that point, we're led to believe Bruce and Rachrl just leave. Ummm, dude, there is still a homicidal maniac upstairs with your guests. Might want to take care of that.

Always assumed it was dumb for him to talk to her in the bat voice when she asked is Harvey ok

Has it been discussed how Batman and Rachel come away uninjured after they fall from a penthouse window and crush a taxi? This part always irritates me because it takes away from Batmans vulnerability.

More importantly, Batman is now street level, uninjured, and the Joker and all his henchmen are trapped in a penthouse full of innocent civilians. How did a hostage negotiation stand off or at the very least a fight outside the elevator not occur?

The cowl modulates the voice. Explained in the Batman Begins extras.
