Surviving a fall from more than 34 feet is extremely unusual.

During the descent she would have been falling at 34ft per second which of my calculations are correct is 50mph.

Incredible.

TED talk about a skydiving mishap. I knew him in the Army.

I fell off the 4th floor of some apartments when I was her age, landed in a crepe Myrtle and walked it off

She’s at least twice as strong as I was

In all seriousness, eight stories is way too high for college apartments; also suprising the windows open.


I assume this is sarcasm.

Neither of those building are 8 stories and it said the pool is on the second floor so if she fell from the top floor in that picture, it’s 5 stories. Around 50 feet. Still very high but a little more than half the height which was reported. I also do not understand how she went through a window. They open all the way enough for an adult human to accidentally fall out? Glad she’s ok.
