Well, that's not what I had in mind with the original description.
All
of those instances have one thing in common; that the people who
survived
were ALL still inside some part of the airplane.
What I was looking for was a "naked" fall (not inside a part of an
aircraft) of 20,000 without anything to hang onto.

So was I. However, that site lists some of those as "free fallers."


And as CJ pointed out, same site,
http://www.greenharbor.com/fffolder/ffallers.html has entries for two
falls from 20k and 22k, outside of the destroyed airframe, and
survived.


Unfortunately, the site lacks any documentation for those claims. They
*might* be true, but all the site itself tells us is that someone somewhere
in the world says so on some unspecified basis.
