"but even if you can, you would get killed in the same way you'd be killed without being in the liquid: going from 250km/h to zero when you reach the ground would cause an deceleration that would crush you, not to mention being in a thick fluid, which would crush you even more."

youre inside a fluid, youre water my friend

on impact you just feel a huge increase of pressure as the impact, but if youre breathing the fluid thats like being a fish 20 km underwater
No, cos your body is not meant to resist such a sudden deceleration.

Let me give you an example, have you ever had a fly in your car when you're driving? why doesn't it stay attached to the rear windscreen? You're moving forward and in theory that what should happen if you're in mid air. The fly is in a fluid though, which is moving with you inside the car. If you hit something with your car, that fluid will have the same acceleration as everything else, with the difference that the thicker the fluid, the harder it will "push".


And don't believe for a minute you would survive 20km underwater either, even if you're breathing a water solution, unless you're in a pressurized submarine, the pressure is so big you would implode in a ball of gore.
