Depends on where you launched it from. If you threw it from ground level and it landed on ground of equal height, then I'd say 15 seconds, 30 at the absolute max. If you launched it from, say, 30,000 feet, the altitude at which jumbo jets fly, then who knows how long it could stay up there, let alone where it will land.

How and why do airplanes fly at such great heights?

They do it with engines large enough and wings with enough lift to work in the thin air at high altitudes. They fly up there for two reasons: less air traffic and less weather. At 35,000 feet you're above the clouds.
