@"How did you solve for this? I'm curious." I'm not the OP but: earth's gravity accounts for an acceleration (yes, acceleration, not deceleration) of -9.81 m/s^2 so take the equation for vertical projectiles: change in y=(.5)(accel)(time)^2+(initial velocity)(time)+(starting height) If you timed how long it takes him to hit the ground from launch, you could plug that in for time, and assume change in y=(0 - his sitting height according to his model)

I am disregarding air resistance.
