One of my fave wildlife moments was when the goslings jumped from their tree nest at Eaglecrest, with "Jump" by Van Halen playing in the background.

T40 - It looks like they are parachuting out of a plane when they jump off! 
Very pliable
Wood Ducks are as they jump & land from
dizzying heights.

Pip & I watched in horror the 1st time we saw it for ourselves. Holly S***.
35 feet free fall from a nest box to the forest duff below.
Little guys bounced off of the forest floor like they knew exactly what they where doing.
Waddled of to the water after mama like nothing special ever happened in their day.
As a free climber of rock faces, having fallen from above ceiling height, licensed mountain guide since I was 18, an arborist tree climber as a profession for 20+ yrs. Parachuting from perfectly good airplanes military, smoke jumping & recreation.
My jaw dropped. My palms sweated.
Mine don't easily do that. Mother Nature is endlessly Amazing.

I'm not really sure what height
Canadian Geese chicks can jump from "without a parachute" however ?

From N2B crib rail -to- forest floor has got to be 50+ feet.
