No it doesn't.
I'm the one who posted the physics info. My range of heights was based on a estimate of the time in the air:
2 seconds -> 16 feet
3 seconds -> 36 feet
4 seconds -> 64 feet
If someone wants to pull out a stopwatch, we could tell for sure but most esitmates put it between 3 and 4 seconds. So, I'd feel pretty comfortable saying that science puts it closer to 40 feet.
