the one who is walking off will reach ground earlier then the one jumping off the board. i.e because the one who jumps has to go up and thus his hight from ground increases compared to that who is walking off the edge when they fall down gravity acts equaly on both of them so they are assumed to move with equal velocity when falling down
hope u got it.

I think it would depend on how high they jumped, because the acceleration gain may or may not make up for the further distance.
But seeing how the distance people jump aren’t very high, I would go with the one that walks off will land first.

The person walking off….because they just go straight down versus the diver who puts a little velocity and space between him and the water first.

it kinda depends on the height the jumper jumps because he could get a greater velocity with the height but i would put my money with the one that walks off
