    Still think its a bad idea to jump out of a perfectly good airplane.
    Just because we are peaceful does not mean we have forgotten how to be violent.

    You don't need to be the strongest
    or the most intelligent to survive
    but by having the right tools and
    the adaptability of change
    is where you will prevail.

    This could end badly but there is no way that he could break the sound barrier unassisted without rocket power. A falling object no matter the size or shape will not or can not fall faster that 250 per hr. It's just the laws of physics in our atmosphere.
