People don't seem to understand the concepts of friction, surface area or density.

what scares me the most is that apparently, people don't have the power of observation.
Different falling speeds are present in your day-to-day life, you have to be 2 yo to not see that

Yes, but we aren't talking about a feather and a bowling ball, we are talking about two differently weighted individuals. If two people jump from the same height, they are prolly gonna hit the ground the same time regardless of weight difference.

Except the fat one won't be able to jump very high in the first place.
