How long is the longest fall?

Answer 1

The longest free fall without a parachute is recorded at 38,969 feet (11,335 meters) by Vesna Vulović in 1972, after her plane exploded over Czechoslovakia. She survived the fall, which remains a remarkable feat of human resilience. However, the longest fall with a parachute is generally calculated from the jump altitude to the landing, which can vary significantly based on the jump and conditions.
