Not impressed. Terminal velocity would be reached after about 300 feet, so meh. |

my question is, how did they make sure that it did not land on someone? |

pointless experiment. even more pointless is to do the math and find that an ipad has a terminal velocity of 61.228 fps. I used a Cd of 1.28. I'm more than likely wrong though as someone will no doubt attempt to prove |

They're testing out a case. I wanted to see the iPad get destroyed. I believe the title is misleading. |

This is so irresponsible! What if some passing aliens had nabbed it and back engineered our technology? |

There's no need to drop it from that height to test its durability. Once it reaches terminal velocity it won't go faster hence no more damage will be done. On a side note I'm going to round 18.9393939 to 19 miles...your welcome Fatninja01. |
