Do ants experience injuries from falling proportionately to their body size?

Would an ant falling a foot be enough cause for traumatic injuries? Or would they brush it off, like a dog or human would after falling from the same height? Does their tiny body mitigate falling damage somehow?

I shook an ant off my shower curtain and he hasn’t moved yet. :(

Ants are very lightweight insects, and once dropped (in a few seconds), they achieve their terminal velocity and continue to move at the same constant speed. It is almost physically impossible to kill an ant from a fall.
