Land in the river and you won't take fall damage

Except water becomes incredibly hard if being hit with too much speed. If there's vegetation next to it and you're at (or close to) terminal velocity you might want to land there instead. There are confirmed cases of people surviving a fall into vegetation after their parachutes didn't open.

Why the hell are you down voted? It's true.

Because responding seriously to a comment that is obviously tongue in cheek is annoying.

Thanks for explaining - seriously.

As a neurologic divergent I literally do not see it that way. So I would now criticize the tolerance of neurotypicals and get me downvoted. 😁
