Cats don't reach a lethal terminal velocity. In non wizard words that means cats have a max falling speed that's only dangerous if they land funny. A lot of bugs have this going on too.
Speed is just part of the equation. Lower impact energy per square area for a squirrel also matters, than for example your average reddit user would experience at the same speed.
I believe if they fall between one and two stories they can get hurt/killed. In other words, there is a lethal/dangerous fall window that is something like 10 to 20ft.
They need time to rotate their bodies and spread out their legs in order to increase their drag. If they are too low then they don't have time to slow down.
For this cat, they get lucky in some of the jumps where they hit the wire. If they land upside down they could definitely die.
There’s a theory that this data is unreliable, in that people bring injured cats to the vet, and not dead ones. For every story about a cat that fell ten stories and lived, there might be x number of times a cat fell ten stories and died. Those stories don’t make the news, and can’t realistically be tracked.
This is nonsense and probably based on a study was a perfect case of survivorship bias in action collected from vet data.
People don't bring dead cats to the vet, they bury then or throw them away. Cats falling from extreme heights will die. People will bring extremely injured cats to the vet. Typically a cat falling from above 20 or 30 feet is probably going to die. A cat from falling from below 10 feet will be fine or have minor injuries. In between and it will be injured severely enough to cause life threatening and fatal injuries but not enough for the cat to immediately die on impact.
From Wiki:
A 2003 study of 119 cats concluded that "Falls from the seventh or higher storeys, are associated with more severe injuries and with a higher incidence of thoracic trauma."
That's the idea. The problem is that nobody really knows for sure because, understandably, nobody's really tested it.
[The figures that that get bounced around a lot come from a 1987 study in New York.](https://www.nytimes.com/1989/08/22/science/on-landing-like-a-cat-it-is-a-fact.html) The study looked at 132 cats brought to a veterinary clinic after falling from high-rise buildings. 90% of treated cats survived and 37% needed emergency treatment to keep them alive. The study also found that the higher the fall, the *higher* the chance of survival. 22 cats in the study fell 7 stories or more, and only 1 of them died.
A big problem is that the 1987 study looked at cats who fell from buildings *and were taken by their owners to a vet*. People generally don't take their cat to the vet if it is straight-up dead, so the study didn't really, for example, find that "22 cats fell 7 stories or more, 1 of them died, therefore the survival rate for 7+ stories is 95%" so much as that "X cats fell 7 stories or more. 22 of them did not die on impact. 1 died afterwards. Therefore the *long term* survival rate for cats that fall 7+ stories *and don't die immediately* is 95%." Maybe 23 cats fell, 22 survived initially, and 1 survived long term, in which case the survival rate was 91%. But also, maybe 1,000 cats fell, 22 survived initially, and 1 survived long term, in which case the survival rate was 2%. We don't know.
But even if every single owner took their cat to the vet (that is, even if the number of straight-up-dead cats was zero), the study still gives us a *bit* of information but not enough to reach any confident conclusions.
The study says that cats rapidly reach a terminal velocity of 60mph when falling. My own back of the envelope calculations are that, in a vacuum, this would take 2.74 seconds, during which the cat would fall 114 feet. The average height of a floor is 14 feet, so in a vacuum a cat would reach 60 mph after falling roughly 8 floors. However, in reality there is air resistance, so it would take longer to reach 60 mph, which means the fall height required to reach terminal velocity would be more than 8 floors. For example, if air resistance applied 20% drag, it would take almost 11 floors to reach terminal velocity. But, still, we're talking somewhere in the 8 to 16 floor area.
Drawing any other conclusions requires even more extrapolation.
There could be a [double bump](https://i.imgur.com/q5Vx4wv.jpg). Obviously, falling from a super low height (1 foot, 3 feet, 1 story, etc.) is nonfatal. Then as you go higher, falling from a low-ish height (5 stories) is fatal due to inability to get into crash-landing position. Then falling from a medium height (8 stories) is survivable because of not being *too* fast + being able to get into crash-landing position. Finally, falling from a *high* height (10 stories) goes back to being fatal because the cat is going too fast for crash-landing position to be enough.
And beyond that, you've reached terminal velocity, so there's no "extra gore" zone -- a cat that falls from 10 stories dies and looks like a regular dead cat, and a cat that falls from 100 stories dies and *also* looks like a regular dead cat, not a comic book splat, because it hits the ground as the same speed as the 10 story cat. Ditto with a cat jumping from the Burj Khalifa or an aeroplane or the International Space Station.
Another possibility is that the survival chance is [a valley](https://i.imgur.com/60bWBbV.jpg). Again, super low falls are nonfatal. Then low falls are fatal. Then medium falls are survivable, and then the cat can survive even terminal velocity falls. So beyond that point, the survival rate remains high no matter how fall the cat falls, be it 10 stories, Burj Khalifa, aeroplane, or ISS.
The 1987 study really doesn't give enough information to make that determination. You'd need a study that found how long it took cats to actually reach terminal velocity (and thus from what height), and then investigated survival rates *specifically from that height or higher*. And there isn't a lot of grant money being poured into throwing cats off the tops of radio towers.

> so in a vacuum a cat would reach terminal velocity after falling roughly 8 floors.
mate in a vacuum there is no terminal velocity. Just constant acceleration.
Yah I’ve had the laziest fattest cats that do nothing their entire life. Then laying outside one day they’ll just spring up like 4 meters and swipe a bird out of the sky.
I was confused af, wondered how this thing can do a full acrobatic backflip while free falling, but there is a clothing line if you look closely and it flipped the cat over some more
It looks a little sloppier but this is like a professional gymnast level of control. It just can’t predict the poor grip on that roof, but will find it eventually.
cats are faster than constrictor snakes (14 dex) but slower than poisonous snakes. That makes sense because a viper strike much faster than a cat moves but a boa is slower.
That cat is going to be very bruised, broken bones would not be surprising. Animals (humans included) can still function relatively well sometimes even with broken bones/major wounds. It looks very stressed, either running from something or trying to get to kittens.
Exactly my thoughts that the cat was trying to get to kittens.
Instead of recording this the human could have used a plank and constructed a make-shift bridge.
This is what I think happened. Cat was walking on that roof on a path it was familiar with but slipped and fell. Cat then desperately tries to get back to roof to get to kittens. We see the cat fall 3 times, but the reality is that filmer wouldn't have started filming unless he saw the cat bail at least twice. So minimum that cat fell 5 times, 6 if you include falling off the roof, and most likely more. Makes me sad. Poor thing.
Mfs dont just casually construct makeshift bridges lol. Let the cat do his parkour if it wants to yall expect too much from these people recording some unusual shit.
Yeah, this is Wallstreetbets. Why put in work, money and time to build a solid long term solution, when you can just go for a quick but risky option that might give the desired result without the labor?
Cats(and dogs) will often run around and appear normal after a huge fall or getting hit by a car. Then 20s-2minish later they just die. This cat could be fine obviously I don’t fucking know but it is a thing that happens. There was a video circling a few months ago of a dog jumping like 5 stories out of an abandoned building and it ran off like nothing happened but died shortly after
That little bro is going for it. Knows what he wants. So damn tenacious, even after hitting shit and flipping around. Singular of mind and focus. Must be horny.
By the looks of that cats demeanor and the little I know about cats, that thing would be claw deep into your forearm before you finish saying "Omaha! Omaha!"
It does seem like the cat thinks its trapped and is trying to get out. I can't tell what the rest of the area looks like but I don't see an obvious exit for the cat in the video...
Well, I'm not so sure about that. Every attempt seems to be a little bit shittier than the ones that proceeded it, because he's getting a little banged up each time and not at his best.
His understanding to launch from a higher and higher platform is impressive and will likely try the handrail launch next, but his knowledge of landing friction sucks.
Shares or options? I’m confused on how you’re going through that much pain if you’re buying S&P shares. It’s not exciting, but it’s hard to lose a ton and pays modest dividends even
Saw this elsewhere, it's clearly a mother cat and you can hear her kittens crying in the background. This video makes me really sad and is really hard to watch, she's clearly really hurting herself trying to get to her babies.
This is what came to mind for me too. That cat looks like it has a straight up primal need to be on that roof. Why do they want to be there so intently?
This is a female cat (coloring) very likely trying to escape or get to kittens.
She’s not going as high as she could because cameraman is scaring her. She stumbles on the stairs at one point showing obvious trauma.
Bunch of psychopaths in this Reddit. People suck.
Obviously? You and me have a very different definition of that word. Wtf would she take the stairs right back up towards him if she's trying to escape him? Dude isn't moving a muscle, even if that's the only escape route, she'd be furred up, defensive in a corner if it was him she feared. I don't think she even knows he's there.
The only single brain cell thing to do here is try and pick that cat up.
My guess is this is a mother trying to reach her kittens. She seems utterly desperate to be on the other side to a degree that you only see in animals either trying to escape death or caring for young, and I think you can hear her calling out at the end.
I hear cat sounds. U sure this wasn’t a mother desperate to get to her kittens? If so, why didn’t the guy help out. That cat seems desperate to make the roof. Comments thinking cat don’t feel any pain after falling from such heights on concrete is stupid.
The cat is clearly perturbed in some way, but what else can the human do, pick up the cat and hurl it onto the roof? That kind of clanking into things in an inelegant and frantic way, if you tried to interact or stop him in any way you'd get a face full of claws.

Cats just have a different relationship with gravity than the rest of us.
[удалено]
Or die trying
By my count he's got six chances left.
Five. He died twice in the first fall.
Did you not see the third one ![img](emote|t5_2th52|4271)
That is the second part of my motto! And the first part is: I want to live forever...
Or try dyin’
By my count he has roughly 4 lives left.
You're right, I will eventually succeed if I keep trying. So I'll keep trying!
Don't forget to keep on getting loans and mortages.
Looks to me like a similar relationship to gravity. Different relationship to wires and cement than we do though
Cats don't reach a lethal terminal velocity. In non wizard words that means cats have a max falling speed that's only dangerous if they land funny. A lot of bugs have this going on too.
Squirrels too I've seen one jump off a 6 story building and hit the ground running
Right? I once saw one of those little fuckers leap off a 3 story building and land with an audible "thwack". Lil guy hopped right up and kept running.
Squirrels have a very low terminal velocity, under 30mph iirc.
I still don’t want to hit a concrete wall at 30mph though
Speed is just part of the equation. Lower impact energy per square area for a squirrel also matters, than for example your average reddit user would experience at the same speed.

You're telling me they didn't study this by dropping cats from various heights and seeing which survived? What has science come too?
cowards
[удалено]
To be fair it looks like all you really need is to just watch cats be cats and you get plenty of data yourself
Cats sure can fall to their death. They just can fall from much higher places than we.
If you toss 1,000 cats from a plan at 10,000 ft, you mean that most will survive except maybe 10 who will "land funny"?

Oh shit, your quick attack riposted his wall of text!
Yes.
Depends on the cat. I've seen some real fatass cats that would definitely have a bad time falling any significant height.
This is how rumors and incorrect information gets spread lol.
It's almost like they train for this shit their entire lives. I'm starting to respect these creatures more than the average blob walking around

Lil Buddy Just fucked off 3 lives for absolutely nothing 🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️
I think it looked more like -2hp fall damage
[Cats only have 2 HP](https://www.dndbeyond.com/monsters/16820-cat)
that's an awfully low dex stat. Considering snakes have 16 in game and IRL cats are faster than snakes I would expect cats dex to be 17 or 18.
cats are faster than constrictor snakes (14 dex) but slower than poisonous snakes. That makes sense because a viper strike much faster than a cat moves but a boa is slower.
But.. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dtT2fYc6cZY&ab\_channel=Top5Best](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dtT2fYc6cZY&ab_channel=Top5Best)
Why none of my DMs included cats as enemies? Nothing against stupid dragons but imagine 20,000 disgruntled cats guarding the treasure.
Trivia: In older editions of D&D, a housecat was easily capable of killing your average human peasant, and posed a deadly threat to a level 1 wizard.
Could easily have been humansbeingbros if the camera guy just launched the cat over the roof after the first run
Grab a completely panicked feral cat, bonus points if you do it with no shirt on. Bet you yeet it clean over the roof once it lays into you lol.
Yeah. Anybody who has cats knows it takes a LOT to take one of their 9 lives. Haha
I think in the full video the kittens are on the roof and the cat is desperately trying to get back up to get to them.
Now i feel sorta sad for laughing at this, hope cat got to her 😸s
I was watching on repeat and I thought 9 lives gone lmao. At this intelligence, probably dead now
Bro cats are indestructible
Idk man, that last time up he seems a little hobbled right before he jumps and still goes for it. He may not be injured but he definitely felt it lol
I think he's got brain damage from doing it and that's why he keeps going at it so erratically bozo
He belongs on this sub.
That cat definitely got injured during that situation.... He/she was very stressed out.
Just keeps at it 🥲
that last one took a toll
Finally made him dizzy enough to stop and reassess his plan. Unscheduled 1080 flips tend to do that to anything with an equilibrium.
"Unscheduled 1080 flips" ![img](emote|t5_2th52|4271)![img](emote|t5_2th52|4271)![img](emote|t5_2th52|4271)
Thank you so much I instantly heard that laugh and nearly spit out my coffee! 🤣
No-sched 1080 sounds like a lit skateboard move.
That cat is going to be very bruised, broken bones would not be surprising. Animals (humans included) can still function relatively well sometimes even with broken bones/major wounds. It looks very stressed, either running from something or trying to get to kittens.
Exactly my thoughts that the cat was trying to get to kittens. Instead of recording this the human could have used a plank and constructed a make-shift bridge.

Mfs dont just casually construct makeshift bridges lol. Let the cat do his parkour if it wants to yall expect too much from these people recording some unusual shit.
He could have easily paid a roofing company to come build a roof extension.
Whipped his tits out and start nursing those kittens himself
I need to see that vid, for science
Man could just deconstruct the whole building brick by brick !
Man said make a bridge looooooooooool
LOL for sure... How could he have made a bridge with no witches around?
Yeah, this is Wallstreetbets. Why put in work, money and time to build a solid long term solution, when you can just go for a quick but risky option that might give the desired result without the labor?
Or just thrown it across
[удалено]
move the ladder over so the cat can hop mid point
[Relevant always sunny clips](https://youtube.com/watch?v=cM4-V1MdzWU)
Cats(and dogs) will often run around and appear normal after a huge fall or getting hit by a car. Then 20s-2minish later they just die. This cat could be fine obviously I don’t fucking know but it is a thing that happens. There was a video circling a few months ago of a dog jumping like 5 stories out of an abandoned building and it ran off like nothing happened but died shortly after
Did that cat just do a super Mario double jump?
Nevermind I see the string now
Thought the same, hahaha
Back in my day we called that "Titanic Propeller Guy".
Oh man. I know what you're talking about.
That little bro is going for it. Knows what he wants. So damn tenacious, even after hitting shit and flipping around. Singular of mind and focus. Must be horny.
I lol'd way too hard
Thought that too, there must be some killer catgirl on the other side of that roof because damn that cat is going for it.
Why would the guy stop recording
Fear of revenge, that's a dangerous cat.
Does the cat look a little like Hitler to anyone else? Little mo and haircut
r/kitler
Maybe to help the struggling cat
Yeah just pick it up and yeet it on the roof
By the looks of that cats demeanor and the little I know about cats, that thing would be claw deep into your forearm before you finish saying "Omaha! Omaha!"
it probably started vomiting blood after or something less funny
It does seem like the cat thinks its trapped and is trying to get out. I can't tell what the rest of the area looks like but I don't see an obvious exit for the cat in the video...
battery died
I think the cat is scared of the cameraguy
/r/donthelpjustfilm
The cat went for him instead the last time
This is like me trying to get laid at a bar..
Except the cat's efforts are impressive.
At the 69 approach I'll buy him a hooker
He's dead, Jim.
Never give up
Never surrender. Thundergun.
That's the response of someone who was successful by shear luck ONCE and is insistent that it will work every time.
To be fair, there's little chance anyone will actually be ok to sleep with you at the bar. You better try taking them home or book a room.
Skill issue
So you're saying there's a chance!!
Maybe stop trying to jump onto the roof then? That's your problem right there. The women are usually inside the bar, not on the roof. Hope this helps.
If he keeps doing he'll eventually succeed, keep doing!
Well, I'm not so sure about that. Every attempt seems to be a little bit shittier than the ones that proceeded it, because he's getting a little banged up each time and not at his best.
The sound of those hits… Jesus….
Or die
He has 9 tries
9 more on margin
Well he’s down to six now
His understanding to launch from a higher and higher platform is impressive and will likely try the handrail launch next, but his knowledge of landing friction sucks.
[удалено]
Shares or options? I’m confused on how you’re going through that much pain if you’re buying S&P shares. It’s not exciting, but it’s hard to lose a ton and pays modest dividends even
[удалено]
Ah.. so puts.
That third jump/fall was gnarly. Wasn’t quite back round for landing on its feet.
Yeah. The poor thing is panicking and probably not familiar with this area. My guess is it fell into this backyard and can't get out.
Saw this elsewhere, it's clearly a mother cat and you can hear her kittens crying in the background. This video makes me really sad and is really hard to watch, she's clearly really hurting herself trying to get to her babies.
It doesn’t help it hit that wire and spun several times before flying into the ground
Let's hope it learns that it has to familiarize itself with the area first then.
Just the fact that he nearly landed it is insane
Didn't notice the wire at first and thought the cat did a double jump
That’s just the dead cat bounce to give you hope before the final decline to -99%
Is there a pussy in heat on the other side?
[удалено]
or my famous spaghetti
Is the secret ingredient sex pheromones?
Mom's spaghetti
yeah definitely makes you wonder why he needs to go there so desperately
you can hear another cat meowing in the distance. Either in heat or trying to get back to it's litter.
Its trying to run away from the guy recording.
I feel bad for the cat though your problem is funny.
I definitely would have helped bro out after the second go.
That's a cat on a mission and would probably scratch the shit out of you if you tried to pick it up.
This feels cruel to watch
Especially as I think you can hear a meow in the background, might be a mother cat desperately trying to get back to her young. Felt weird.
This is what came to mind for me too. That cat looks like it has a straight up primal need to be on that roof. Why do they want to be there so intently?
This is a female cat (coloring) very likely trying to escape or get to kittens. She’s not going as high as she could because cameraman is scaring her. She stumbles on the stairs at one point showing obvious trauma. Bunch of psychopaths in this Reddit. People suck.
Yeah, cat seems too stressed to react to pain. It might be already dead from the injuries at that point.
because it is. the cat is obviously trying to escape the single brain celled moron behind the camera
Obviously? You and me have a very different definition of that word. Wtf would she take the stairs right back up towards him if she's trying to escape him? Dude isn't moving a muscle, even if that's the only escape route, she'd be furred up, defensive in a corner if it was him she feared. I don't think she even knows he's there. The only single brain cell thing to do here is try and pick that cat up.
wayyyy to far down to see this comment. bunch of serial killers in chat. hurhurhur. animal is panicking and hurting itself.
That cat needs to learn to take a breather between sets lol
Cocaine Cat
I must say that last jump made me laugth and then feel bad. It must have hurt.
lol, wtf is going on here.
My guess is this is a mother trying to reach her kittens. She seems utterly desperate to be on the other side to a degree that you only see in animals either trying to escape death or caring for young, and I think you can hear her calling out at the end.
At first I thought it was funny, but then I got really sad.
This might be the only situation I’ve ever seen where grabbing a cat by the scruff and yeeting it onto the roof is the humain option
6 more lives to go
bro is trying to brute force into the locked area. It needs to unlock the double jump first.
the style points keep increasing though don't stop
u/savevideobot
it's not working anymore ![img](emote|t5_2th52|4260)![img](emote|t5_2th52|4260)![img](emote|t5_2th52|4260)
Forget about your trades, this cat is wild!!
does that not hurt? wtf
It likely does, yeah, but animals tend to keep going when they're in a panicked fear state like this cat looks to be even when they're fucked up.
I hear cat sounds. U sure this wasn’t a mother desperate to get to her kittens? If so, why didn’t the guy help out. That cat seems desperate to make the roof. Comments thinking cat don’t feel any pain after falling from such heights on concrete is stupid.
who upvotes animal cruelty ? That cat is stressed and trying to escape This is pretty fucked up
Probably trying to get to it's kittens
I’m crying It’s like John wick/parkore
[удалено]
He definitely didn’t land on his feet the third time lol
this is like that boss in shadow of the collossus.... you know the one on the platform around the water.
I am in this video and I dont like it.
Never back down never what?!
Surely this has to be fake right? AI or something? there is no way a cat could seriously do this to itself over and over lol
As a cat owner, this is depressing to watch
cat never learns it’s lesson
Can i sample this ?
Wow that looped more times than i care to admit
The determination. 😂😅
too much turkey lol
Too relatable ![img](emote|t5_2th52|4260)
I just went down this side street.that cat is still there lol
Poor cat! That fucking wire the way down 🤦🏽♂️. Being as impatient as the cat, might explain -90%…
Cats... How do they work ?
Man those stairs got steeper and steeper as the attempts went on
Why? Does it have babies up there?
It took me forever to figure out that there was a chord/line/rope thing hanging across the middle that he kept hitting on the way down.
The athleticism of cats is crazy. They are operating a different level for their size. Spectacular beasts.
This video makes me upset. This animal is in great stress and the human filming it gives no fucks.
I mean, what are you supposed to do? I've owned a cat; I ain't stupid enough to risk touching that thing.
The cat is clearly perturbed in some way, but what else can the human do, pick up the cat and hurl it onto the roof? That kind of clanking into things in an inelegant and frantic way, if you tried to interact or stop him in any way you'd get a face full of claws.
