-- Because that's the way gravity behaves.
-- Because is would be ridiculous to think that heavy objects fall faster.
Here's why:
==> Let's say that heavy objects fall faster and light objects fall slower.
==> Take a piece of sticky tape and stick a light object onto the back of a heavy object.
Then drop them together off of a roof.
==> The light object tries to fall slower and holds back, and the heavy object tries
to fall faster and pulls forward. So when they're stuck together, they fall at some
in-between speed.
==> But wait! When they're stuck together they weigh more than the heavy object alone.
So how can a stuck-together object that's heavier than the heavy object alone fall at a
speed that's slower than the heavy object alone ? ! ?
Isn't that ridiculous ? There's no way that heavy objects can fall faster than light objects.
Objects fall through the force of gravity.
The downward force acting on an object in free fall is Gravity.
Gravity and free fall are similar because they are both a force that pulls objects downward. <><><><><> Gravity is the force that pulls you down. Free fall is when you have no opposing force keeping you up.

Objects fall as a result of the downward force of gravity.
Objects fall through the force of gravity.
Yes. The definition of "free fall" implies that gravity from Earth - or perhaps from different objects - is acting on the body.
