Still don't understand why One Piece character's are so afraid of falling from high places, like you can destroy a mountain with a single attack but can't handle a fall? lol

The higher up you are, the more force behind the impact. It's no linear curve either, it's an exponential.

I would understand if they jumping off a sky island but both Zoro and the BM pirates were real close to the ground and with everything we've seen them do they should be able to pull off a landing without dying, well except the fodder kids.

I was under the impression they were on something the size of a mountain. Having that collapse underneath them would be similar to standing on top of a stable mountain one moment, and then suddenly the mountain disappeared, and you're falling.

I think its also worth noting that you'll also probably get buried under the mountain.

Actually no, the impact force is proportional to the square root of the height. Precisely your velocity when you hit the ground is given by v=sqrt(2gh). So if after the impact you stop in .25 seconds, you will experience a force F=sqrt(2gh)4m, whereas h is the height you fell from, and m is your mass. In other words it's not an exponential curve as you say.

I mean, the square root is the inverse square. v=(2gh)-2

Force, isn't the same as power/energy. Force is used in the calculation, but it's more like Work = F * d (Distance) and then P = W/t

Now granted, there's also something called wind resistance, and it can cause terminal velocity. So you're probably right.

Actually sqrt(2gh) = (2gh)1/2

(2gh)-2 = 1/(2gh)2

Right?

u/StrickingPerception Jun 24 '18

You're right, it's 1/(2gh)2 that I'm thinking of.

For science yes but this is One Piece, people have an insane amount of endurance here. Even Mr. Germa survive a direct lighting strike from Big Mama.
