Toroweap Overlook at the Grand Canyon!
With a successful dive even after attaining terminal velocity you would be left with 8 seconds to enjoy the view before making impact. Just twenty seconds between leap to landing.

Well surely that has to be wrong? What about those people who jumped from the Twin Towers? None of them survived. There are plenty of high buildings in the US, in any city or country. What about the Empire State? You saying if you took a leap off that you wouldn't die?
