    I was thinking “it’s not the fall that kills you, it’s the sudden stop at the end.”

      It’s not the sudden stop at the end that kills you. It’s the different times at which parts of you stop.

        It’s not the different times at which parts of you stop that kills you. It’s the different places they are in when they do.

          It’s not the different places and times your body parts stop that kill you. It is the inflexibility of your connecting body parts inbetween?

            It’s not the inflexibility of your connecting body parts that kills you. It’s the insufficient tensile strength of the connecting tissue!
