He falls something like 2 stories, and he just gets up! I would be in so much pain, he would most likely have a broken back. It is great that he wasn't really hurt by this fall. But it just looks painful to me.

I always thought he should have at least had the breath knocked out of him-- lying flat, mouth opening and closing and unable to breathe for ten or twenty seconds. That's what happened when I fell off the swingset and landed flat on my back nearly forty years ago...

But maybe they thought it would be a replay of the Troll spear in Moria.
