"It's not the fall that kills you: it's the sudden stop."

But like many smart aphorisms this is apparently not true. They say that in
fatal air crashes, many people are already dead from shock before the plane
hits the ground (or water).

Don't ask how they found out. Yuck.

me. I'm sure you know it's not so much the collision that injures, but the
second collision--the body moving by enertia into something stationary.
