The second picture is wrong though. It should be 3.61 feet not 5.29, in case that confused anyone. Otherwise very good.</p> Good site. The second picture is wrong though.

That a bullet fired in normal air (a spinning bullet for that matter) questionably horizontal, was within 10% of the time hitting the ground as an object dropped vertically, is proof positive that an object with horizontal speed falls at the same speed as an object dropped vertically, with no relative speed. I think that any joe on the street would assume that the difference in time would have be much greater. Expecting a perfect result under very imperfect circumstances is ludicrous.</p> Everyone here seems to be confusing a hypthetical model illustrating the fundamental reality of gravity vs. reality.
