There's chance of death, but there's also duration of suffering while dying.

I'm guessing that falling from a cliff is "better" than dying from a poisonous mushroom. The latter scares the hell out of me. The former is a glorious ride until the ride is over (regrettably).

I regret to inform you that possible negative outcomes of falling from a cliff include life-long pain, paralysis and brain injury.

If you sense you're falling to death, it wont be too glorious (personally), but freakish. It can also always fail to bring death!
