Just remember that it is not the fall that hurts you, it is the sudden stop at the bottom of that fall!

Hi!!
My name is Jerry and I'm Pedantic.
If the airframe you're in descends faster than you are you can actually get hurt by the ceiling of the aircraft that would be the sudden stop at the top of the fall.

Never walk a mastiff farther than you can carry him.
