Yes, and I was wondering what the rate of decelaration due to thicker air would be and how rapidly his high velocity would be reduced, plus how far would he travel before that effect is finished and he would again be at a "terminal velocity".
@Steve, I was just pointing out that it wasn't a constant.
@Osmium, you understand why this is actually a variable
...he'll be going no faster than if he'd jumped from an airplane.
