If it has enough kinetic energy, a moleculeat the surface of the Earth can escape the Earth's gravitation. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s2, and the Boltzmanns' constant is 1.38066*10-23 J/K.

The tibia bone in the lower leg of an adult human will break if the compressive force on it exceeds about 4*105N (we assume that the ankle is pushing up). Suppose that someone step off a chair that is 0.40 m above the floor.
