Description
Kerbals are very light and can jump very high (about 2m on Kerbin, 14m on the Mun, 45m on Minmus) when not carrying anything or wearing an EVA pack. These high jumps cause Kerbals to ragdoll when hitting the ground. The cutoff for ragdoll-ing is around 0.04t of weight (EVA pack is 0.045, two EVA fuel canisters is 0.04, an EVA fuel canister and one EVA experiments pack is 0.035t and the Kerbal ragdolls upon jumping)
[note: attached screenshots are from a modded save, but this has also been verified in unmodded KSP 1.11.0)

They jump unrealistically high on everywhere. Mun too. It might be parachute. I left parachute to cargo but had eva pack. Jumps grazy.
