Watching Shazam! (2019) at the bar the other night and the villain introduces himself by grabbing the protagonist (a kid magically transformed into an adult superhero), flying up to airliner height, and dropping him.
He’s all freaked out as he falls and closes his eyes before he hits only to open them and find he’s stopped like an inch off the ground and can fly.
And… would that work, invulnerability superpowers aside? Like he’s not in contact with the ground, but going from terminal velocity to 0 instantly at some point applies the same jerk to his body even if the point is one inch higher, right?
