Murphy's law at work here, you have a great camera guy who captures everything perfectly but an asshole has to walk in front of the camera at just the exact instant it will ruin the video!

Re: Suicide Jump from 25th-floor of Embassy Suites Hotel, Philadelphia
Actually they do at least in this case, I watched an interview from a kid who jumped off the golden gate bridge to kill himself and he said as soon as his feet left the railing he regretted it, obviously he survived the jump.

25th floor. 10ft per floor = 250ft minium. That will do it everytime. Wonder what was bugging him?  |

at belly down orientation it takes 10.5 seconds to reach terminal velocity at around 120mph. he fell only 4.5 seconds so probably 60 mph at impact -licensed skydiver |
