– Would I survive if I jumped off a collapsing building right before it hit the ground?

Question

Curious as to what would happen if I perfectly time it. Would I be safe? Lets say the building is 4 stories high

Thing is, if you’re strong enough to jump fast enough to cancel out your falling speed, you’re also strong enough to just absorb the landing without a jump. Landing from a tall building is the same as the reverse, jumping to the top of it.
