Because of gravity
plummeted means to fall from a plane and not to have a parachute that will protect you from hitting the ground to hard.
The man jumped out of a plane using a parachute so he would fall safely to the ground. We used a parachute so we could land safely on ground.

A parachute increases drag, slowing the fall of an object and reducing its terminal velocity. As the parachute deploys, it captures air and creates resistance, causing the object to fall more slowly towards the ground.
Punching a hole in a parachute will decrease the surface area and disrupt the airflow, causing the parachute to fall faster. The hole will reduce the air resistance acting on the parachute, resulting in a faster descent.
The larger surface area of the parachute creates more air resistance, slowing down its descent. This increased drag counteracts the force of gravity, causing the parachute to take longer to reach the ground.
The manipulated variable in this experiment would be the size of the parachute. The scientist would change the size of the parachutes to see how it affects the time it takes for them to fall to the ground.
they mostly just hit the ground or water because there parachute and emergency parachute did not deploy you could also have a heart attack in mid fall.
Gliding animals have indeed evolved structures that slow their fall. Their wings act as a parachute slowing their fall to the ground.
The man with a small parachute will fall faster.
Perhaps you mean Terminal Velocity, as in a parachute fall? This is the maximum speed reached in the fall. Final velocity will be zero, assuming you arrive on the ground.
The larger the size of the parachute the more air resistance is caused because its larger surface traps more air. Becuase there is more air resistance the larger the parachute the slower it travels to the ground. The smaller the parachute the faster it falls to the ground for the opposite reason.
