Can you survive at 10000 feet?

Above 10,000 feet cabin altitude — most of us will go unconscious above 15,000 to 20,000 feet. Above 10,000 feet, with the yellow emergency oxygen mask the airlines provide (or any supplemental oxygen supply not provided under pressure) — no problem.

How long would it take to fall 5000 feet?

Based on a typical skydiving freefall descent rate (which we’ll tell you about in a moment), it takes around 10 seconds to fall the first thousand feet then five seconds thereafter. So from 14,000 feet, opening your parachute around 5,000 feet, you’ll fall for about fifty seconds.

How fast can you hit the ground and survive?

“A free-falling 120lb [54kg] woman would have a terminal velocity of about 38m per second,” says Howie Weiss, a maths professor at Penn State University. “And she would achieve 95\% of this speed in about seven seconds.” That equates to a fall of around 167m, which is nearer 55 storeys high.
