How does the cat land on its paws?

Back in about 1970 or so, that was actually investigated by scientists with high-speed cameras. They found that in fact a cat will turn its body while falling to get its feet under it. It does need a fall distance of about 15 feet to be able to reliably land on its feet, though it often will manage to get itself turned over in a shorter distance. It is believed that the cat is turning itself by differential friction with the air it is falling through, making itself rough, and therefore slowing itself, on one side.


Can cats survive terminal velocity when falling from great heights?
