What is the highest height a human has fallen from and lived?

Answer 1

Vesna Vulović (Serbian: Весна Вуловић) (born 3 January 1950) holds the Guinness Book of Records world record for surviving the highest fall without a parachute: 10,160 meters (6.31 miles, or 33,000 feet).

The fall occurred on January 26, 1972, over Srbská Kamenice in Czechoslovakia (now Czech Republic). Émigré Croat terrorists (Ustaša) had placed a bomb on board JAT Yugoslav Flight 364, on which Vulović was a flight attendant. The explosion tore the DC-9-32 to pieces, but Vulović survived. She remained strapped into her seat in the tail section of the plane that was still attached to the washrooms. The assembly struck the snow-covered flank of a mountain.

The 22-year old wasn't scheduled to be on that flight; she had been mixed up with another stewardess named Vesna.

Vulović was the only survivor on the flight, and not only lived to tell about it, but continued working for JAT at a desk job following her full recovery from injuries which included a fractured skull, two broken legs and three broken vertebrae, one of which was crushed and left her temporarily paralyzed from the waist down. She regained the use of her legs only after several months of successive surgeries.

Vulović was awarded the Guinness Record title by Paul McCartney at a ceremony. She later became a national hero in Yugoslavia in the 1970s.

Air resistance is a far more significant factor in the fall of the ant, and it quickly reaches a terminal velocity modest enough so that it can land without injury from any height. See the similar question asked by Leika M, "Physics Help!?" For details on air resistance and falling bodies, see the reference below.

Answer 4

Some may fall with a parachute and can still live, so I think around 30, 000 ft. This actually depends on how sophisticated and how equipped someone falls.
