Butters 0 #5 September 18, 2006 With the suit (assuming the suit had constant acceleration without reaching terminal velocity) a person would be traveling approximately 52mph upon impact at 190 feet (given it did take 5 seconds). Without the suit a person would be traveling approximately 75mph upon impact at 190 feet (it would take 3.5 seconds). The suit did not work that well."That looks dangerous."
