I was thrown into a bottomless pit, but I reasoned that it must have a wall, right?

So I said that I maneuvered like a skydiver to get to the wall, and then climbed out.

But the AI didn't seem to think that bottomless pits have walls.

I died. How? It didn't say.

I used the "I do something smart and I survive" answer. It responded with me creating a makeshift parachute and landing on a ledge of the wall. I climbed out and survived. So now I know if I answered with that instead, it would have said no.
I survived by saying since it's bottomless I never reach the ground.

"It's the ground that kills you, not the fall" :)

Old age.
