I disagree, the difference in deceleration from hitting concrete vs being caught could make a difference.

If Superman (or whoever) uses the remaining distance between you and the ground to reduce the impulse on your body. But they also have to be careful about their speed coming in to grab you, because they could easily substitute your impact with the ground for an impact with them.

Spiderman could web the falling person from above like a bungee cord, or even catch them in a safety net style web.

But he'd have to do this before she is 2 feet above the gound.
