I counted 2 seconds before we hear the thud. According to my calculations, he would've fallen approximately 19.62 meters in 2 seconds. He could be in heaven now. Amen
The distance an object falls in 2 seconds can be calculated using the formula: d = \frac{1}{2}gt^2 Where:
- d = distance
- g = acceleration due to gravity (approximately 9.81 m/s² near the surface of the Earth)
- t = time Using this formula, the distance an object falls in 2 seconds can be calculated as follows:
d = \frac{1}{2} \times 9.81 \times 2^2
d = \frac{1}{2} \times 9.81 \times 4
d = 4.905 \times 4
d = 19.62 \, meters
So, an object in free fall near the surface of the Earth would fall approximately 19.62 meters in 2 seconds.
yes you are correct.wah......................you the best lah..................so 19 meters is around 5-6 stories ?
Wait! he fell on the 58th sec time stamp and the thud came on the 61st sec time stamp. So he fell for about 3 seconds! He fell 44.13m. Up lorry liao.

my guess is that's the elevator shaft, under construction.aiyoh.............poor thing..................just doing a job and died..................still don't understand how come there's a gap and how come he can miss seeing the gap
Not looking at phone still cannot see hole?
