how fast do you fall when you jump out of a plane
But let's say that, somehow, you were to fall out of an airplane and found yourself in that exact situation. You have to keep that you have to think fast. If you fall out at 12,000 feet (about 2 miles up), you only have about 60 seconds before you hit the ground. In free fall, you fall at about 125 miles per hour (mph) if you have your arms and legs extended, and at that speed you will travel about 12,000 feet in one minute.
