I want to have the courage to defenestrate myself

hello,

I wanted to know for a fall of 60 meters from a building if the wind could deport me a little... I'm not talking about air resistance but as I have to aim a little while jumping, are there gusts of wind? in 80 km/h could make me move for exemple...I'm looking at the weather forecast for the day of the jump

Thanks 😊

A wind, especially a strong wind, could certainly shift your point of landing by anything up to a few metres. If you need pinpoint accuracy, I guess that means you have to wait for a calm day.

If you fall from 196ft you'll almost certainly dying.
But I agree the wind would be a concern.

A super strong wind might, but since you'll be falling for only a couple of seconds, any normal breeze would not deter you too much, plus you'll probably find windows of no breeze to be able to jump
