A man is picked up by a tornado and dropped a quarter mile away from his home. Even though authorities estimate that his body was dropped at 30 mph he suffered no major injuries. What factors contributed to the fact that his body was able to withstand this drop?

Answer 1

Answer:

the factor that contributed to the fact that he was able to survive this fall is due to the fact that his body is made up of bone which are strong and his skeleton also protected all his vitals internal organs.
