Dropping a bowling ball from a airplane?

the terminal velocity of a 14-16lb bowling ball would be around 180-220mph
for all intensive purposes, it would be like trying to catch a cannonball at the terminal phase of it's parabolic trajectory
in other words, you'd be a smear on the ground...

Now there's a question!
So glad we have this technology to bring us together over nothing... always nothing.

I would hope they missed it. A human couldn't catch it.

One of the more interesting obits would be written.

{@dad34] if something is dropped from such a height the velocity it would be travelling to the ground if you tried to catch it i would image if you could hold on to it would knock you off your feet 😆put i am not prepared too test out my assumption though

You mean if they're not in free fall close to it? Is this a 10- pin or a 'small 5-pin' ball? What is the pilot's name?

They would at least break their arm. Depending how it hit them it could potentially kill them.

A bad case of stupid. Most likely someone from the UK, Canada, Australia, NZ or other socialist country.

Is it a real bowling ball or a kids hollow plastic version?

deattth.. a sphere, has a pretty low drag factor t would hit very hard

After reading the comments, I kind of want to drop one and see.

They would die.

Since the terminal velocity of a bowling ball is 285 mph they would die.
