He repeated the action (at the same height) but bend his legs while
landing
and heard a soft sound while landing on the same platform as shown in
Diagram 7.2.
The Spiderman experienced a change of momentum in both situations
and he took shorter time to complete his action when he landed without
bending his legs.
