Jan 11 at 1:59 comment added Solomon Slow You spoke of "force" but @Dale's answer mostly says "acceleration." That's because, in General Relativity (GR), gravitation is not a force. In GR an object upon which no forces act (e.g., you, after you step out of the airplane) always follows a path called a geodesic. That is, the closest thing you can have to a "straight line" in curved space. You fall toward the ground because in GR, geodesics bend toward massive bodies.
