What are all of the possible outcomes of jumping from New River Gorge Bridge in WV? It's like 800 some feet

Should be an almost 100% chance of death at 800ft. Nothing is really 100% though of course. One woman survived something like a 30,000 ft fall from an airplane. So one could theoretically maybe survive, i'm just not quite sure how, maybe going legs first. Main worry would be SI and/or someone stopping you from jumping off, ie a cop or passerby, if you hesitate at all and then being locked in a psych ward. In summary, if you jumped off the middle of the bridge right away it should be at least an 75% chance of death for whoever. Not sure about any potential pain, seems unlikely there would be any imo but i'm not sure enough to say that for certain.

It's 800 feet.... I don't see how anyone could ever survive that long of a fall
