So if you time it perfectly, the elevator would hit the floor but since you were in the air, you don’t feel the pressure of the landing. And then you wouldn’t get injured, right?
In: Physics
No, you would just hit the floor a split second later with *maybe* slightly less force than you would have had you not jumped. You get hurt by a sudden stop, it doesn’t matter if that sudden stop was from the elevator itself suddenly stopping (not jumping) or you hitting an elevator that has already stopped (what happens if you jump)
It would be virtually the same.
