Pretty sure the Hamster would be fine, didn’t Kurzgesagt have a video on this kinda stuff where they tossed a mouse of a skyscraper but due to the mass and size of the mouse it doesn’t reach a speed in which it dies on impact?
You can drop a mouse down a thousand-yard mine shaft; and, on arriving at the bottom, it gets a slight shock and walks away, provided that the ground is fairly soft. A rat is killed, a man is broken, a horse splashes
You can drop a mouse down a mineshaft and it can survive the landing, but a skyscraper has cross winds, which could easily get it moving laterally too fast to survive. A hamster is considerably larger than a mouse though, and just because a mouse could survive doesnt mean a hamster would.
i had a hamster when i was a kid it was put inside a glass aquarium. my lil bro took it to our granma house couple blocks away. idk how but he lost his grip and fell to the ground. the tank glass shattered and the hamster died on the spot. im sure its not a height thing and more of a shock and stress thing

A wise man once said:
Hamsters are way heavier, around 150g, unless we’re talking pups or dwarf breeds. That’s around 6 - 10 times the weight of a mouse.
And they are a more compact shape with stubby legs and tails, which I imagine has negative implications for terminal velocity.
There’s only one way to settle this
Size comparison:
Hamsters will die from looking at them wrong. I also know three childhood friends who had hamsters that died from it just walking off the bed
They are very fragile

Our hamster died from a 50 cm fall. I don’t think they are as durable as mice

The US military has been collecting all the munitions grade hamster due to a shortage of depleted uranium.
From what I’ve seen on the internet hamsters need to be on a 24/7 suicide watch, even without retard kids throwing them from buildings.
Mark Rober’s squirrel videos also talked about it a lot.
