    Terminal velocity: It can only fall so fast, no matter what. Objects don’t continue accelerating faster and faster. At some point, they’re going as fast as they can go given conditions.

    In other words, there may be do difference in dropping it out a 3-story window, 16,000 feet, or 120,000 feet.
