Can a penny dropped from the Empire State Building really kill you?

“So, we tested out whether pennies dropped from the Empire State would hurt you by dropping a bucket of pennies from a helicopter onto a guy standing underneath …”

“And?”

“It was fatal, unfortunately.”

“Hmm. You think maybe you should have tipped the pennies out of the bucket instead of just dropping the whole bucket?”

“Yeah, probably. Good idea. We’ll do that next time.”
