What is the terminal velocity of an average person?

Any idea?

Typically on the order of about 120 MPH, in a skydiving overall with arms and legs spread out. If the skydiver pulls his arms and legs in tight, he can get up to about 200 MPH, typically. Actual figures will vary depending on body weight, clothing and posture.

Nice simulpost.

Depends on the mechanism used to lower the casket.

Perhaps they are tandem skydiving?

QED and QtM.

Hmmm.

Who’s on top?

:smiley:

The correct answer has already been supplied so …

Terminal velocity in the context of a sky diver is rather macabre. If continued it can turn the “average” person into a relative rarity and also quite short.
