While in college, Theodor Seuss Geisel was caught drinking gin with his friends; as a result, his dean insisted he resign from the college magazine. To continue working on the magazine without the dean’s knowledge, he began signing his work with “Seuss,” which he later changed to “Dr. Seuss.”

Whoa! That's incredible. A kid in my high school died during junior year from a 30ft fall while he was riding his ATV. I guess it all depends on how and where you fall, not the height. I think Mythbusters did something like this on whether landing on water is softer than landing on sidewalk(it's not).
