Fallen After a stressful day, Aubrey decides to go up to the roof of her apartment building in the middle of downtown Seattle to admire the lights of the vast city. She navigates herself toward the edge and takes a seat, swinging her legs over and allowing her feet to dangle. Aubrey stares out at the traffic of people who were just leaving their work that evening. A loud horn from an aggravated taxi driver causes Aubrey to jump, which then follows with her shoe falling off of her swinging foot.…

The research we did in order to determine whether or not Thomas’ fall was survivable centered around finding numbers pertaining to Thomas’ weight, the average height of a two story house, and information about fatal falls.

Brunelleschi's design of the dome for Florence's cathedral A church without a roof, seems to be ample motivation to have one installed. However, the church that had begun in 1296 still had no roof over the grandest part in 1418. The problem? How to build a dome 180’ in the air, 150’ across, on top of an octagonal building.
