Clearly, the cat let the eagle go when he got too high. Actual truth: The car killed the cat OR the cat was already dead before the eagle let go. Cats can survive being dropped at any height. The terminal velocity of a cat which is able to right itself is slow enough that cats can fall from any height and, with a little luck, remain uscathed.
I have seen a squirrel fall from the top of a tree. It knocked the wind out of it but it scampered off. I have also seen two crows fighting and one flipped the other. It fell like an upside down helicopter to the ground. Same thing-it knocked the wind out of it and it re-entered the fight.
I don’t believe this. Who made that windshield? I would have a test run to see if it was defective. That cat would need to be launched from a pumpkin chunker.

This has been proven empirically? Any height?
I would like to see this presentation at the Science Fair.
