If Top speed of a Pronghorn (98 km/h) was a standard unit ...

  • Top speed of a Peregrine falcon (389 km/h)...more would be 4 x Top speed of a Pronghorn
  • Terminal velocity for a skydiver with arms and legs outstretched (195 km/h)...more would be 2 x Top speed of a Pronghorn
  • Top speed of a killer whale (48.3 km/h)...more would be 1/2 of Top speed of a Pronghorn
