A moment of joy, no world record, but the feeling was amazing, that little plane flew across New York!

  • no a penny can't kill someone if dropped from that height. It would if there is no air resistance and if the acceleration is a constant 9.81 m/s^2 but since there is air in the Earth's atmosphere, this goes against the acceleration at a certain velocity creating what is called a "terminal velocity" of an object.

    Based on studies done at MIT, the average penny's terminal velocity is 11.2 m/s or 25 miles per hour. This will not even penetrate the human head.

  • @shniku I'm pretty shure it would be able to kill someone, if you dropped it from a higher building tho. And it depends how the penny hits the person as well.

  • lol if a paper plane pisses you off then tie it to a remote control plane and fly during rain
