In this clip, Rachel falls falls from a sky scraper and
heroically gets saved last second.
Lets see if the height of the building matches up with her
free-fall time.
| Height =.5 * force of gravity * time^2 Height = .5 * (9.8m/s^2) * 18.5s^2 = 1677 meters |
The buiding in the movie was probably 50 stories tall, no
where near a kilometer!
