Frequently asked
How fast do skydivers fall and what determines their speed?
Skydivers typically reach terminal velocity around 120 miles per hour during freefall. Speed depends on body position, weight, and air density. Spreading arms and legs slows descent, while streamlined positions increase speed. Experienced skydivers adjust their position constantly to control their fall rate and direction during complex aerial maneuvers.
At what altitude do skydivers jump and why is altitude important?
Most recreational skydives begin at 10,000 to 15,000 feet altitude. Higher altitudes provide longer freefall time, allowing skydivers more opportunity for tricks and formations. Very high altitude jumps require oxygen tanks due to thin air. Felix Baumgartner set a record jumping from 128,000 feet in 2012, breaking the sound barrier during his fall.
How do parachutes work and why do they slow skydivers down?
Parachutes create drag by displacing large amounts of air. When deployed, the parachute's massive surface area catches the air, creating an upward force that opposes gravity. This drag dramatically slows the skydiver's descent from 120 mph to about 15 mph, making landing safe. Modern parachutes are rectangular and highly controllable.
