Kerbal crash tolerance?

[Wizard Kerbal]

I was just curious what a kerbal’s crash tolerance is.

Or at least, what it most consistently is.

 

In my testing, kerbals can hit water at speeds up to 60 m/s.

On land, I’ve had kerbals hit the ground at 24 m/s and just get up, but I haven’t had any kerbals hit at speeds more than that but less than supersonic. But on lower gravity planets, I’ve had them hit up to 60 m/s and be fine(with a bit of spahgettification).

I just realized, a shuttle booster tearing itself off at 2,000 meters and crew having to bail out can be described as, “in my testing”

The config files for kerbals lists the crash tolerance as 50, which I'm guessing means 50 m/s.

They're robust little buggers for sure.

They are descendants of fungus and kardigrades, so yeah, very robust!
