ants

[crew84]

the other day i was in my garden and an ant was crawling on my arm so without killing it i brushed it off and it hit the floor and ran off. now considering the size of the ant and the height it drop. if that was equal to me i probably would of died. so my question is how high would you have to drop an ant for it to die.

It would have reached terminal velocity dropping from that height even from a lot lower I would imagine, so if you dropped it from an aeroplane at 30.000 ft and fell to the ground, it would still survive, unless it starved to death on route. An ant is so light that it will never gain enough speed to cause itself any damage.
