Around Azeroth: The plunge
Remember, kids, it's not the fall that kills you -- it's the landing. Halrandir of Midnight Cartel on Elune (US-A) writes, "My mage has been finalizing his arcane experiments in non-portal interplanetary travel. Here we see him sliding through the space between spaces as he hurtles off into the unknown. Unfortunately, he has a terrible sense of direction and didn't so much reach another planet as reach a beautiful patch of nothing. Too bad those incantations need air to be recited."

"My mage has been finalizing his arcane experiments in non-portal interplanetary travel."
Insert Portal references here.
"Here we see him sliding through the space between spaces as he hurtles off into the unknown."
I'll get us started.
Hey. Hey. Where are we going? Space? Space space space planets comets stars galaxies.
Dad, I'm in space.
I'm proud of you son.
Dad, are you space?
Yes. Now we are a family again.

It's not the fall, but landing, that alters social standing.

"It's not the fall that kills you---it's the landing."
Technically speaking, not always the case....if the fall is long enough, you CAN reach terminal velocity, which in terms of people (and sparing the gory details), you're going so fast that certain intra-cranial organs cannot withstand the pressure and condense. This causes death pre-landing.

I didn't know that. That's fascinating. Thank you for sharing. ^_^
