Are you disputing the existence of atmospheric pressure? Where's the "container" for that? I already gave you an out (that thick black line at 30 km), but you didn't take it.

Pressure Alpha. Pressure. You left out the word "pressure" from your statement. Atmospheric PRESSURE gradient. Are you again denying the existence of atmospheric pressure? If so, what do those little round gauges measure? What do manometers measure? "Denser gases near the surface cause the temperature to increase." Classic. Do us all a favor. Stick to voodoo magic and leave engineering and science to the rest of us.

I skipped through the rest of the gobbledygook nonsense to get to this question, so that you don't continue to ask repeatedly.

Answer: Provided the opposing (to gravity) air resistance forces are equal in both, they'll both fall with the same velocity and acceleration toward the ground. F=ma In this case F would be the force of gravity minus the air resistance forces opposing it.
