A penny dropped from the top of a tall building could kill a pedestrian
高处落下的一分硬币可致人死亡

　　A penny isn't the most aerodynamic of weapons. A combination of its shape and wind friction means that, tossed even from the 1,250-foot Empire State Building, it would travel fast enough merely to sting an unlucky pedestrian.
