if bottomless pits were a real thing, what would be the most common cause of death for people that fell into them?
my first thought was boredom-induced suicide...like after several hours of falling you're just like okay well the only thing that can happen is i die its just a matter of when, so i'm going to see if i can careen off one of these sidewalls really hard until i die from it
and then my next thought was...well, probably exhaustion? Like i can't imagine its possible to fall asleep while falling at near terminal velocity, so i would imagine you are just awake for several days before your body is just too exhausted from lack of sleep and you die from it.
