Hmm, throwing a water impact into the mix makes the physics a lot more complicated … but for the sake of the story I suppose we could just assume that each person has a physical or biological reason for surviving the impact … (oh, and great artwork again!)
I was sure someone mentioned this before, but maybe not. . . . a cat always lands on all fours!
Also, the physics in this world are a bit different. Gargoyles and dragons fly, stone castles 500 feet high are common, cantilevered docks 100 feet long are made only with stone, children can fly, Paddington accelerating you from zero to 180 MPH in the span of 50 feet doesn’t kill you, etc. You don’t get harmed when you do dangerous stuff . . . . Basically, the physics are what you experience in a dream. VERY forgiving.
Actually, alex is the only one landing right… you want to break the fall with your legs. Diving in from that height headfirst will shatter whatever you hit with, and in that case, you probably wouldn’t slow down enough to prevent it from crushing your skull… But then, she used magic, so she knew she could land fine, so I suppose her landing was correct… but so was Alex’s. Or he just got lucky 😛
Awesome underwater effect, looks like its drawn
Everyone’s floundering except for Nastajia :p
Awwww, no heroic belly flop?
From that height, I think I’d want to go in feet first, like Alex. That boy’s not the stupidest idiot from his village.
from that height, upon hitting the water, shouldn’t they all have spontaneously gone squishy?
if they hit at the right angle, then no- it’s all in how you hit it
Borogrove, I’m pretty sure felicity did a heroic belly flop ;P
Wow…three hundred feet and no catastrophic crunching of bones.
Isn’t that a really bad idea for the giant made out of stone?
and then Nico was swallowed by the mushroom-cloud explosion of water caused by Paddington hitting the water, and they lived happily ever after!

I think JakesDad hits the nail on the head here:
“Basically, the physics are what you experience in a dream.”
‘Nough said.
Heroic belly flop = internal bleeding
xD that made me laugh.
Also mondo drop and no big splash>< aww you would think rockman would give a good splash
heh Paddington! you missed a prime opportunity here what you should of done was CANNONBAAAAAAAAAAALL!
Feli’s got the heroic belly-flop going.

tidal wave!!!
…Or not. Nevermind. Ah well, this is fantasy. Other sources for physics, right?
Paddington, you genius! You used Donkey Kong’s taunt maneuver to avoid the damage taken by simultaneously hitting the water!
No, he’s the smartest idiot from his village.
Not to mention the whole sword-in-building-to-slow-down thing.
