How about "fell like a leaf made of iron: tumbling end-over-end rapidly to the ground"?
If not, you could try "as if the ground was stretching out towards him/her/it, greedy to have him/her/it in their clutch.

∙ 9y agoAn example of a falling simile is "as easy as falling off a log".
"Falling like raindrops made of lead" is another good example.
Another example could be "I saw the man fall like dominoes". Or "I watched them fall like a tumbling house of cards".

I also recommend a useful website called Simile Stack, though it may not be as insightful as the book. Click here to visit it.
