I too enjoy lifetime films, and enjoy the ridiculousness of them.
A few notes:
The old guy was a terrible actor and was happy Miranda spared us more of him on screen.
Andrew (Mrs Doubtfire guy) was more than useless the entire film, limping around and provided almost no value to any scene, but I suppose they have to have him there for emotional support and to prove that the sister "has a life".
Aubrey was a complete b*tch from the start, even the taking photos inside the stripclub scene - I really wished she got what she deserved by Miranda.
I did find it ridiculous the cops that managed to solve a case in Mexico within a few minutes, like seriously? Firstly it's not even your jurisdiction let alone country, I'm sure those police departments in Mexico would be more than happy telling you to piss off. Secondly what do they know about medical conditions of the mother? How about consult a medical professional, someone who actually knows what they're talking about.
In saying all this, I enjoyed the film. I wish Miranda had survived somehow to bless us with a sequel.
The dude literally leaps from his sitting position and actually gave himself a push towards the ground so he accelerates down faster. Obviously they should have made a makeshift rope with everything they could - but at the very minimum he could've at least hung off the chair and dropped to reduce his fall by his height. Not the brightest of characters.
Firstly use all possible clothes you can all spare, tie them together to make as long a rope possible. They had a lot of jeans which can hold a lot of weight and jackets, multiple layers of them. This will more than likely make the drop insignificant or at least reduce the height by almost half. The idiot in the movie didn't even bother hanging off the chair before dropping, instead leaps straight off from his sitting position and actually gave himself more momentum on gravities side.
Anyway once you're hanging from the bottom your clothes rope, try and swing yourself upwards (swing towards uphill half diagonally), this again will reduce how far you fall as you're not jumping towards where the ground gets lower - you also gain some sidewards momentum to reduce impact.
