My stepson did the same thing.  Took the screen out of our second floor 
window and started throwing books and toys out.  When we asked him why he 
did it, he said he wanted to see if the objects all took the same amount of 
time to hit the ground.  What can you say to that?  We went and made him 
pick up the stuff, and his dad put the screen and the blinds back in.
