Contrary to popular belief - when you drop chit from altitude and it hits the ground it just does not stay there - it has a reactionary force that
sends the chit back into the air (Newtons Law) - and IF it is not a solid it explodes from the first impact (such as a human body - will not tell you how I know this).

But chit just does not hit the ground and go splat like the movies.
