of course it works but gravity alone only accelerates you vertically. accept when you are on an angled ground, then gravitiys vertical acceleration gets partially translated into a forward acceleration because the ground stops you from going straight downward.Utter rubbish. Gravity works just as well when you're not on the ground, moron
you don't have that translation in the air, so only the vertical component of your speed will increase while the horizontal component will decrease because your forward momentum gets eaten by air resistance. problem is, the horizontal component is what gets you to the finnish...
