Such as why do things get faster when they fall?  Why can't things just stay the same speed they were falling when they started falling.

I'm pretty sure it has something to do with fluid dynamics, terminal velocity and Java.

Due to air resistance and surface area some objects fall slower (than if they were in a vaccuum).

To answer your question, yes objects do increase in velocity as they fall. Why? Because of gravity, of course.

Why doesn't gravity make stuff fall slower the cloer it gets to the ground?  It would make falling off of things a lot safer.

Once you get close enough to the ground you will stop falling.

So how about air brakes?  Can I have air brakes to slow down falling?

Gravity is sensorial.  The farther you fall, the closer you get to the object exhibiting gravitational force, thus the more eager that said object is to see you.  Hence it hurries you along all the MOAR.

Then it gives you the goatfinger.

Yes I would like to inquire about getting a receipt for the services provided by the lethal trollop that your company provided to me at the marimba showroom.  I wish to take your offer to redeem for brandy.  Yes, that was her name.
