- Cats are famous for landing on their feet. But they use a different technique to survive falls from much higher up. By splaying their limbs like a parachuter, cats have been known to walk away from falls as high as 32 stories up with limited injuries.

How This Cat Survived A 32-Story Fall
Following is a transcript of the video:
32 stories above the streets of New York City, a cat fell from a window and lived. After vets treated the cat's chipped tooth and collapsed lungs, the feline was sent home two days later.
Cats fall a lot, and they've gotten really good at it. Drop a cat upside down, for example, and it will almost always land on its feet. That's because cats are extremely flexible. They can twist their bodies mid-air as they fall.
But landing feet first isn't always the best strategy. Like if you're falling from 32 stories up. To figure out how cats manage that perfect landing every time, a series of studies looked at over a 100 cats' falls from two to 32 stories up.
Comes as no surprise that cats who fell from the second floor had fewer injuries than cats who fell from the sixth floor. But here is the fascinating part. Above the seventh story, the extent of the injuries largely stayed the same, no matter how high the cats fell. So, how is that possible?
Well, it all comes down to acrobatics or lack thereof. Cats that fell from two to seven stories up mostly landed feet first. Above that, however, cats used a different technique. Instead of positioning their legs straight down as they fell, they splayed out like a parachuter. And landed belly-first instead.
But this method isn't 100% foolproof. Chest trauma, like a collapsed lung, or broken rib is more common with this landing method. But the risk of breaking a leg is much less. So, how do cats somehow subconsciously know how to land?
It has to do with a physics phenomenon called terminal velocity. At first, the cat plummets faster and faster under gravity until she's fallen the equivalent of five stories. At that point, she hits constant terminal velocity at 100 kilometers per hour. She's now in free fall where air friction counteracts her acceleration under gravity. At this point, she's no longer accelerating and, more importantly, doesn't feel the pull from gravity.
So, here's what researchers think is happening. From two to seven stories up, cats don't have enough time to reach terminal velocity and prep for landing feet first. But once they hit terminal velocity, their instinct changes and they parachute their limbs.
All that said, don't throw your cat out of a window. I can't believe I have to say this. Not only is it still very dangerous, it's not very polite. Don't throw your cat out the window just to see all that go down. Just watch this video again. Just hit the little replay button. - Домашні улюбленці та дикі тварини

My 7 month old cat fell from my apartment 9 stories high and she’s after two days she’s perfectly fine.

This comment calmed me down a bit yesterday at 4 am my cat fell from my 6 story apartment and I couldn’t take him to the vet bc it’s thanksgivings day so he’s been just at my bed and his back paw is clearly injured and also had blood on his nose and lip but I’ve been keeping a close eye on him he seems to be breathing fine and no pain when I rub his stomach or ribs, I’m taking him to the vet tomorrow

Part of the reason that cat's injuries didn't get much worse after the 7th floor, is because the study you reference did NOT take into account the number of cat's that died from falling above that height. Also people are a lot less likely to report that their cat fell if they died.

So these scientists threw cats off of skyscrapers.
Sitting on my lap is a 5 month old kitten who has spent most of her life in hospitals and cages recovering from injuries sustained (likely) due to falling out of a window. I live in China, where they sell chicks or baby turtles in little plastic balls with nothing but a few air holes; toys for children to play with a few days until it dies of starvation or thirst. I found this kitten on death's door back in August.
The first vet I took her to told me to throw her in the bushes - if I wanted a cat there were tons of healthy strays. The second said she had a horrible contagious disease, even after I pointed out that I thought her leg was injured - that just made him push and pull on it really hard to "feel" for breaks - she cried so hard and was obviously in so much pain from what he was doing, but he didn't know enough about animals to even realize (or just didn't care). He told me she was just an unwanted cat, don't waste my money running all these expensive tests to find out what terrible disease she has, she'll be dead soon anyway.
Finally the third vet actually knew about animals AND cared. He took an x-ray rather than forcefully trying to feel for breaks. I won't say he's as good of a vet as we have in the States, but at least he's not a complete idiot. She had a broken hip as well as extensive injuries to her face. Her nose was so clogged with dried blood that she couldn't breathe and her eye had blood in it. After 6 weeks of cage rest she had to have surgery to remove the top of her leg bone. She's still recovering from that surgery and still having trouble with her eye.
Before I rescued her, I always wondered why animal adoption contracts here required a home visit to make sure you had bars on the outside of your windows. Isn't it common sense to not leave wide open windows with no screen? Apparently not. Some idiot left a wide open window for a 3 month old kitten to fall out of. Unfortunately, most people don't adopt, they go to pet markets and buy animals (those places are worse than puppy mills - the animals are often already sick and the new owners abandon them once they find out).
I always wondered how far she fell - I guess this video at least gives me an idea. She probably fell from somewhere below the 7th floor, considering her injuries.
This kitty is the sweetest cat ever. She's had such a rough start to life but is so loving. She would spend every moment of every day laying on my lap if she could. Although I've already got two cats and it will be expensive to bring three back to the States, I've decided to keep her. I just couldn't face her going to someone who might potentially put her in danger (just by not knowing how to take care of pets) or might abandon her if she got sick. She's had such a hard start to life, she deserves to have a good one.
She’s so lucky to have you! I hope you and your cat are still doing well!

Last night my cat slip on roof top and fall from 5th floor and survived magically with no damage its shocking surprise for me and my neighbors.
I don't care how but I'm happy for him.
This idea is based on a study from the 80s that examined 132 cats that were brought to the vet after falling out of buildings. If your cat dies falling from a skyscraper, you're not going to take it to the vet, you're going to put it in the bin. So the dead cats weren't included in the study.
In Singapore they reportedly find 5 dead cats a day that have fallen out of buildings.

Hello brother
Humans:3-6 story=Death
Cats:I'm alive in every way
Cat : survive 32 story building
Me : can't walk after fall from my bed
Absolutely fascinating !
Wait, if at 5 stories a cat falls the fastest without getting faster anymore and has a good chance of surviving does that mean cats could fall from any height with a relatively large chance of living!?
Pretty much. It means that above five stories it isn't going any faster so it will hit the ground with the same force from five stories or from a plane.
Well, technically yes, if you can endure the landing at your max freefall speed it doesn't matter how high you fall(ok, don't go skydive from space, that might not work) because once you reach the max freefall speed that's it, you can't accelerate any further. Best part is, that applies to basically every single "thing" we see around. It's the exact same principle that makes parachuters survive at landing, the chute makes their max freefall speed something they can easily endure.
@@MuhammedGemci This is called terminal velocity

my cat fell from the 8th floor and died eventhough i called the petemergancy right away, she died on the way to the hospital, i am just so heartbroken and can’t get over the constant feeling of guilt eventhough it happened month ago, because we didn’t secure the balcony enough because we assumed that our cats have these great instincts not to climb onnthe railing and even if so we didnt figure they would fall since cats are usually so skilled. it was the worst day of my life seeing him like that, hanging on by a thread for half an hour was seriously heartbreaking :(
2:50 Yea what he said! It's "cat"astrophic for you to do something this.

Yet more evidence that cats are the best.
