That depends on how tall each story is. (But it doesn'tdepend on the person's weight.)

We'll assume the nice round and reasonable number of 12 feet per story.

We have to ignore the effects of air resistance, because that can change if the person

even so much as rolls to a different position, like a sky diver. So we consider only the

effects of gravity on a falling object.

6 stories = 72 feet

The time for anything near the earth's surface to fall 72 ft = 2.115 seconds (rounded)
