A raindrop hitting a mosquito is like a human being hit by a bus!

A raindrop hitting a mosquito is kind of like a bus hitting a human being. The only difference is that the mosquito’s got the skills required to make it out pretty much unscathed. According to recent experiments, the insect’s light weight compared to the raindrop actually works in it's favor.

According to

physicists, it's small weight means that not much momentum is transferred to a mosquito. Thus, the mosquito is able to attach itself to the rain drop and just ride it downwards. The mosquito is careful enough to break away from the drop before it splashes into the ground.
