    It was 'Galileo Galilei' who proved that objects of different mass fall at the same acceleration rate when he dropped two objects of different masses from the Leaning Tower of Pisa and they reached the ground at the same time -- NOT Newton.

    David, I am a little confused as to what you mean. My video doesn't talk about masses or acceleration at all. This one is about pressure.

    On the opening web page, not about vacuums, but about falling acceleration, it stated Newton demonstrated that objects of different masses have the same maximum falling acceleration.
