A fatal disease is a medical condition that ultimately leads to the death of the individual affected by it. Common examples include certain types of cancers, advanced stage heart disease, and terminal illnesses like ALS or Huntington's disease. Treatment options for fatal diseases are often focused on improving quality of life rather than curing the condition.

Based on two classes' worth of research on terminal velocity I'd say it's good for keeping some falling objects from reaching a speed that will, literally, be "terminal" (fatal) to whomever it hits.

All of my sources say it's impossible for said penny to do more than sting the person (barring them being hit in the eye or them somehow swallowing it), and the reason for this is terminal velocity.
