After 5 seconds your speed is about 160 feet per second due to gravity
speed = gt = 32 x 5 = 160
You travel a distance in 5 seconds of 1/2gt^2 = 400 feet
After that it depends on weight but due to air resistance speed is constant near 160 feet per second so to go next 800 feet takes about 5 seconds
Total time = 10 seconds to free fall 1200 feet
If there were no air, it would take take only about 8.5 seconds
