The first person to exist - He/She would have realised that they did not float off into space.
Anybody who lives on Earth experiences gravity.
Newton was the first to mention the idea but others made changes to what is called gravity. Einstein is one of these.
The scientist who wrote about gravity and the laws of motion was Sir Isaac Newton.
Sir Isaac Newton is credited with conducting experiments and developing the theory of gravity in the late 17th century. His work on gravity culminated in his famous publication "Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica" in 1687.
We can know through two ways. First, we know the moon's mass and radius. From there it is fairly simple to calculate surface gravity. Second, we have sent probes and people to the moon, making it possible to actually measure the strength of gravity.
The first person to watch something fall. OR The first person to live.
Anybody who lives on Earth experiences gravity.

Isaac Newton
The scientist who wrote about gravity and the laws of motion was Sir Isaac Newton.
Isaac Newton did not discover gravity, but he is credited with developing the universal law of gravitation and explaining the mechanics of gravity in his work "Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica." The concept of gravity was known to ancient civilizations, and Newton's contributions built upon existing knowledge.

Probably Ugghhh the Caveman was the first person to discover gravity, when he stepped out of a tree and fell abruptly back to the ground. Johannes Kepler devised his theories about planetary movement, which described how the planets move around the Sun, but Isaac Newton was the person who calculated the behavior of the force of gravity. We still don't know how gravity works, or how it is generated, or how to control it.

Do you know who was exactly thw first person to dunk?
