New Adjustment
I'm thinking right now, intoxicated, watching Labyrinth… and there should be a rewrite of these rules so that soft landing surfaces (e.g. snow, soft earth) or impediments to your fall (e.g. trees, awnings, glass, thatched roofs) is what offers you the knockout penalties. And only up to a certain height.
Lots of people die after a fall of 16 feet.
A fall of 50 to 60 feet will kill almost anyone.
Really, anything over 100 feet is too much for mortals to survive. But this game doesn't have just mortals, does it?
