I just had to go outside and try this. I stand 5ft 9 and stood flat footed beside the bedroom window. I could leap straight up and touch the glass. This means if I held onto the sill before I dropped to the ground, I would drop around 1-2 feet. I will do this before I try to look for a ladder in smoke or flames. And like TT2 says, the dw better get out of the way on the ground!
