Actually, it's much lower...he doesn't reach terminal velocity until about 15 seconds after he jumps. He gradually accelerates until he reaches 55m/s which is roughly 198km/h

Unless you die because you had too much sex... and the chicas you were having sex with drained not only the semen, but your soul through your penis.

It lasted less than a minute. I don't think he had time to even know what he felt.

Yeah, cos if it was your friend you'd just stand there silent and without motion.

I think one of the worst ways to die would be drowning, or burning to death.
Skydiving would be much better I think, very quick.

I remember reading somewhere many years ago about a guy who tried kill himself by jumping off the Tour Eiffel. He landed on a car below and killed the occupant, but the jumper survived. I'm pretty sure the article was accompanied with a picture of the car. Having been to the Tour Eiffel a number of times I'm not sure how he hit a car, there isn't a road underneath it...
