Can i survive falling 20 floors if i don't land on my head?

[justwannadie]

If I land on my back or chest, how likely is it that I'll survive? The only thing holding me back is my fear of paralysis. I have no fear of death anymore. I just want to be positive that even if I can't control my position mid-air and I end up landing on my chest or back, I'll die. The building is over concrete and grass. I'm going to try land on the concrete of course. This woman survived falling 300 feet onto concrete just because she landed on her feet and then rolled over onto her back (don't scroll down too far; graphic picture of surgery) https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3212924/

Does anyone have any sources from peer-reviewed studies and such like the one above? Like statistics on mortality from suicidal jumps depending on the height of the fall? Thank you in advance.

300 feet jesus that almost 100 meters

I think this woman is an exception. If you jump from that height, you are unlikely to survive no matter how you land. Check this out: http://lostallhope.com/suicide-methods/jumping-high-building

jumping from 150 feet (46 metres) or higher on land, and 250 feet (76 metres) or more on water, is 95% to 98% fatal.
