Alternative theory - maybe they don't fall. Maybe the platform rises away from them.

Didn't Rand initially Skim as a rising stair? Maybe Skimming is upward motion, but no one knows because they don't have any visual reference points. Did we ever get a PoV from a passenger? IIRC, we only have the channeler who made the gateway "sensing" the motion. Maybe the people who saw the Aiel guy fall only thought so because they were rising and had no sense of motion, so they assumed he dropped.

I don't think it's an illusion - the Aiel & the gholam both went DOWN

Good idea, but unlikely.

Having to include that caveat shows you know your argument sucks

The effects of being in zero gravity are obvious.
