I enjoyed the video. However, The height estimate based on the (juggernaught) fall time was measured incorrectly. The moment the object was let go, the count was already ONE (in your measurement). But at that moment, one second had not passed yet. Instead, it should start at ZERO. So, this means that the fall time was closer to FOUR seconds, not FIVE.

Agreed. In addition, the mass of the object (an empty milk jug) was not significant, so terminal velocity must have been reached early, which would also add to the fall time. I revisit the site with a heavier object and got a more accurate measurement (120ft) which we soon verified!

Funny how when you post the third time, they all show up at once. I watched the "revisited" vid. Now I see the count was corrected before I even commented on it. Glad to see that you made it back safely. The vids are real cool. Thanks for posting them.

What is that equation called?

It's one of the kinematics equations from basic mechanics. Not sure if it has a special name, but I call it the BFF for Big F@#%ing Formula.

Didn't know you could measure the fall without knowing the velocity?
