The point was the fact that the guy with the jet pack would just fly away and the anvil would pull me down. _________________

Yes, well, thank you, tonight.
Still, the anvil wouldn't have anything to do with how fast you fall. _________________

It would pull me down since it's also falling. And if I was holding it I'd be trying to support its wait by default. Grab some 100 pound weight and try to jump. _________________

Weight does not effect falling speed. Period. The reason it's harder to jump is because your leg muscles have to lift the weight as well as you. _________________ I'M A TARD  |

I dunno about you, but when I drop a balloon, it doesn't drop quite as fast as a brick. _________________

Win. How much lighter something is in comparison to the air effects the fall speed. Mass doesn't, but mass is completely different then weight. _________________

doing something heroic, like stopping a bank robbery, or defending someone from a mugger in the street, that way if i die, at least one person has something nice to say at my funeral, where i will be cremated with a recording of me screaming, "Help, let me out theres been a mistake!" while the coffing rolls into the furnace.
and afterwards i'll delegate a couple thousand dollars to an open bar for those who bothered to show up. so all in all, a good day. _________________ "Everyone makes choices in this world, sometimes we choose right and sometimes we choose wrong, with that in mind no matter what we choose we should aim to have fun no matter what we are doing."

i think i'm gonna die in a car crash. whether that means i'll be in a car or if i'm run over, i'm not. i dont wanna die that way but i'm pretty sure that's how it'll be.
either that or poisoning. _________________ I walk a lonely road

The moon doesn't have the same atmosphere that Earth does. _________________

Well, the thing is that helium is lighter than air, so... _________________

balloons do not require helium.
And I think water balloons fall at about the same rate a brick does. _________________ Come into my den let me hear you cluck

Somehow we ended up from how we want to die to a debate on gravity. _________________
