Top speed 714 MPH by Colonel Joseph Kittinger in August 1960 (possibly soon to be surpassed). 'Normal' speed 120 MPH 'flat flying' and 334.75 MPH when 'speed skydiving'. Recently a guy in a 'wingsuit' landed on a pile of cardboard boxes without deploying a canopy and was probably falling at around 40MPH when he landed, having jumped from 2,500'
um... does it go "falling for you while you're falling for me. Falling together"?
Skydivers spread out their arms and legs to increase their surface area and create more drag, slowing down their fall. This position helps the skydiver stabilize their body and control their descent speed before deploying their parachute.
A skydiver, falling without an open parachute, will reach a terminal velocity of approx 200 km per hour (55 metres/second).
They do fall. But they're traveling fast enough so that the surface of the Earth falls away from them as fast as they are falling. Same thing that keeps the Earth from falling into the sun.
While lifting off, a rocket will reach about 17,000mph
because it is closer to the sun it has less to travel it is so fast because it is close to the sun and has less distance to travel
They actually can breathe, though it is not "normal" because the air is rushing past them so fast. I never thought about my breathing when I was in freefall.
Yes, they travel some fast!
200mph when falling from the sky if it ever was
You first have to unlock waypoints while exploring the map. After that, you can select them on the map and travel back to them whenever you want (outside of a level).
Their fastest flight is while performing a "dive".
Houston time.
