The apple has mass. The Earth has mass. The apple falls down, and the Earth "falls" up. The Earth's motion is not measurable. The apple's motion is.
If you are sitting under an apple tree then a apple might as well fall on you dumbo
When he was napping under the tree ;-)
free fall
Isaac Newton thought of the three laws of motion while watching an apple fall from a tree.
They say it all started when he saw an apple fall from a tree one day

Yes, apples fall from apple trees. Of course, they are often picked before they fall.
No doubt, many folk throughout history were well aware of the force of gravity. But Isaac Newton had been discussing the motion of a comet, and this led him to consider the motion of planets, and one day, he observed an apple to fall, and it was this latter that focused his attention. He repeated this tale several times in his life. The apple did not fall on his head! But as above, this led him to consider the broader problem, and to explain it.
Apples do not fall equal to the speed of lighting because the sound comes before motion. This goes for any falling object.
