Yes and no. Being "big boned" myself (6'3", 300-ish depending on the number of beers consumed the previous evening), I'd venture to say the coefficient of drag of the average fat dude is actually lower than a skinny dude. The rounder you are, the closer you are to the ideal shape, which is how CD is determined. However, we're at a distinct disadvantage due to the increased frontal area. Luckily we all fall at the same rate, it just hurts a fat guy more due to the increased force exerted upon the ground when we land. :lol:

I thought it would be easier because of the Cushion and roll factor. :lol:
