Both bricks will hit the ground at the same time.

Falling vertically is always accelerating at 9.8 m/s² because of gravity.
Nothing that's happening horizontally has any effect on that.
The brick that happens to have some horizontal motion will 
probably hit the ground way over there, but that will still be
at the same TIME as this one.

This is a perfect place to remind you of the old unbelievable story,
which I'll bet you heard before:

If you fire a bullet horizontally from a gun, and at the exact same
moment you DROP another bullet out of your hand next to the gun,
the two bullets will hit the ground at the same time !  Even though
they'll be far apart.

Horizontal speed has no effect on vertical behavior.

Why does the Polaris appear to remain stationary in the night sky when other stars show an apparent pattern?
yanalaym [24]
Because one pole of the Earth's axis of rotation (the North one) points
almost exactly toward Polaris.

If Polaris had a pimple or a bump somewhere on its edge, you'd see
the bump rotate around the whole edge, like a clock, once a day.  But
the whole star appears to stay in one place, because our axis points to it.

What happens to centripetal acceleration as the radius of curvature decreases and the speed is constant, and why
lutik1710 [3]
It increases, because the centripetal acceleration is inversely proportional to the radius of the curvature.
