How can ants/bugs fall like 20 times their own body height (dropping from a fence f.e.) and just walk away?

A human falling down from three times their own height (six metres or so) would be horribly injured, while bugs seem to just walk on. How does this work? Shouldn’t they be falling at a similar speed, due to gravity?

It’s like dropping a polystyrene box from hundreds of meters. doesn’t weight much to make a significant impact to cause injury/damage.
