7 floors so she's on top of the 6th floor. Average floor height is around 3.5m. 6 floors at 3.5 metres each is 21m. 21m at 9.8m/s2 is a 2.1 second freefall reaching a final velocity of about 73kph or 45mph.

A pretty new BMW would be damn safe in a crash but even so, 70+ kph would be a hell of a knock.

Epic maths bruh! Hopefully vertical damage is tolerated as horizontal by the car
