Answer:

If you were to jump off a cliff, you would break both your legs and your spine.

Explanation:

Since you would be landing on your feet when crashing onto the ground/rocks/etc., you would potentially (actually, 99.99% chance) become paralyzed and not be able to move your legs and spine. The five sciatic nerves join at the base of the spine and extend down the back of each leg to the toes. The sciatic nerves connect the spinal cord to many of the leg and foot muscles.

Therefore, since you would be landing on your feet, you damage not only the feet and legs, but also your entire spine, which is also connected to your brain (the spinal nerves that is).
