Question: Vesna Vulovic survived the longest fall on record ... Vesna Vulovic survived the longest fall on record without a parachute when her plane exploded and she fell 6 miles, 551 yards. What is this distance in meters? (Give your answer to the nearest meter.)
Yes, Sam Patch started the attempts. He jumped from a high tower above the gorge, just below the falls and survived. A 63 year old woman, Annie Taylor went over the falls in a barrel and survived, just with a little bleeding. She suggested that no one ever try that again. People did though. There have been rescues also, such as a little seven year old boy with just a life vest was rescued along with his seventeen year old sister.
