Can a Human Survive Jupiter's Gravity?

Jupiter is made of mostly hydrogen and helium gas. If you tried to land on Jupiter, it would be a bad idea. You'd face extremely hot temperatures and you'd free-float in mid-Jupiter with no way of escaping. Visit Business Insider's homepage for more stories.

Would you be crushed by Jupiter's gravity?

Jupiter is made up almost entirely of hydrogen and helium, with some other trace gases. There is no firm surface on Jupiter, so if you tried to stand on the planet, you sink down and be crushed by the intense pressure inside the planet.

How would Jupiter's gravity affect humans?

If you could stand on the cloud tops of Jupiter, you would experience 2.5 times the gravity that you experience on Earth. Then you'd fall to your death, because it's a gas planet, made of hydrogen, the lightest element in the Universe.
