Jayne landed gracefully from his free fall or as gracefully as a man of his stature could, that is to say he landed on his feet. Jayne found himself in a small hallway that expanded into an open room which was filled with stacks and stacks of crates and boxes. It was obvious to deduce he had stumbled into some sort of a storage room.
