To safely fall into water from a great height, it is important to enter the water feet first with your arms extended above your head to reduce the impact on your body. It is also crucial to ensure that the water is deep enough and free of obstacles to prevent injury. Additionally, practicing proper diving techniques and being aware of the water's depth and current can help minimize the risk of injury.

The safe height to fall into water without risking injury varies depending on factors such as the person's body position, the depth of the water, and the surface tension. Generally, it is recommended to not jump from a height higher than 60 feet to reduce the risk of injury. It is important to always exercise caution and assess the conditions before jumping into water from any height.
You could say yes. The usual analogy is the height of a water fall relative to the flow of the water in a stream. If the potential difference is great it is similar to a high fall since the height difference is what drives the water down the falls.

Surviving a free fall into water depends on various factors such as the height of the fall, the angle of entry, and the speed at impact. When entering water from a great height, the impact can be similar to hitting a solid surface due to the force of deceleration. It is possible to survive a free fall into water if the height is not too great and the entry is done correctly, such as feet-first and with a streamlined body position to reduce impact force. However, there is still a risk of injury, including internal damage or concussions, so it is important to exercise caution and consider the circumstances before attempting such a feat.

The height from which a person can fall into water and still survive depends on various factors such as the angle of entry, the speed of the fall, and the depth of the water. Generally, a fall from a height of around 50 feet or less into deep enough water can be survivable if the person enters the water correctly and does not hit any obstacles. However, falls from greater heights can result in serious injuries or fatalities. It is important to always exercise caution and be aware of the risks when jumping or diving into water from any height.
It really depends on the height of the fall. I have a friend who jumped off a 50 foot bridge into water and she said it only stung the skin. I wouldn't advise jumping off unless you know the length of the fall and how deep the water is. If the water is too shallow you could seriously injure yourself, or even die. Same if the height of the fall is too great.
No, you do not die before hitting the ground. However, falling from a great height can cause significant injuries or death upon impact due to the force of the fall. It is important to take precautions to avoid falling from great heights.
Actually, when you fall you do get faster and faster. The thing is, unless you fall from a very great height, you do not have time to notice that you have sped up.
The height from which you fall into water can be dangerous if it is more than 50 feet, as the impact can cause serious injuries or even death.
Probably. Water can be very 'hard' when hit from a large height. Professional divers in high dive contests have to have water that is agitated to provide enough softness to be able to hit the water safely. Once you hit terminal velocity, 117 to 125 miles an hour, water is not going to be a big help. The water doesn't move out of the way fast enough to be much help in cushioning the fall. It is pretty much like hitting concrete.
