What is the largest animal that can survive a fall at it's terminal velocity (onto concrete)?

Question

Don't worry im not going to test it ; )

what is with all these stupid answers? I geuss i should have put this into the engineering or physics category

and terminal velocity is not a measurement of how fast something must fall to die you dumb ****

Answer 1

A small spider dropped onto concrete from a high place will crawl away, but a large spider, like a tarantula, will split open on impact. This is largely due to the greater effect of air resistance on the smaller spider, resulting in a lower velocity.

Answer 2

I cannot pin point the article, but I read once that an old woman survived a 6-storey fall thanks to terminal velocity. A manta ray will perhaps stand a better chance (although its cause of death will not be due to the fall, but to lack of oxygen) or any really wide animal.

Answer 3

The crash speed does not depend on the animal's mass but only on the gravity. So you can pick any animal without bones and it stands a chance to survive.

Answer 4

TERMINAL velocity TERMINAL

therfore death speed, and at IT'S terminal velocity. which sugest that the speed would change for everthing you tested

so nothing will survive........

Answer 5

Cats.Their body can bend and gives support when falling or jumping.

Answer 6

kangaroos can although it is rare
