There are also the hundreds of speeders flying by, he could have mustered enough to pull one into his path. Anakin lands on one in Attack of the Clones (not defending that scene but it did happen)

You can jump high and land because your augmenting your legs but making them strong enough to survive going from 56 meters a second to 0ms is another matter, couple of stories no problem but several hundred meters nope.
And I've never seen a force push in any media that equals that kind of speed, a body in motion remains in motion until an equal or opposite force is applied that's just basic physics.
Jedi can't fly so they can't ignore gravity.
So Yoda was augmenting his ... what exactly.... when he lifted an XWing out of the swamp?
Yoda was using the force on another object not himself.
If Jedi could lift themselves like that you'd see them flying instead they can levitate a few inches.
Jedi high jumps are a result of them using the force to boost their natural abilities same as running fast they Arnt lifting themselves like they do other objects.
Another Jedi could catch mace but no where does it show they can hold themselves up.
Don't have to hold himself up.... just has to do a force push against the ground a few times to slow his descent. Just like Kanan and Ezra do in Rebels season 2.
I don't know. With his hand removed, he's gotta be at least -1 along the condition track, probably -10 after the lightning. Any Force Check would be incredibly hard, and he probably spent all his Destiny Points already...

Snoke has one too many hands.
Limb replacements are common technology in star wars. You are not required to use cybernetic ones, even when they are practical as they can enhance your agility and strength. Biological ones come with the advantage that your force powers do not get diminished.

I don't think that Snoke is Mace Windu for a moment, but...
Mace was still screaming as he went out the window, so he was still alive and still conscious. Even if he lost conscious while falling, Coruscant is built up enough that he'd have plenty of time to come to, realize what's happening (he's falling!), and then stop his fall.
Using the Force to break a fall of that distance is pretty far from the craziest thing we've seen a Force adept do in Star Wars. Further, Mace plays dangerously close to the Dark Side and he could easily use his pain and sorrow to enhance his focus.
Mace could pretty easily get a replacement for his missing hand. Bionic replacement limbs seem to be pretty ubiquitous. We've even seen the Force used to manufacture new limbs from nothing more than scrap. While I don't seem to recall having seen any replacement limbs "grown" in Star Wars, it's not something that should be beyond the technological capabilities of the Star Wars universe, although it might be sufficiently costly that it is rarely undertaken and if it has been undertaken... how would we know if it hasn't happened to a main character? Particularly given that mechanical limbs seem to be aesthetically and functionally identical as of the end of
The Empire Strikes Back
.
So Snoke not missing a hand means nothing.
Nevertheless, I don't believe that Mace is dead by the end of
The Revenge of the Sith
, but I'm fair certain he's dead by the beginning of
A New Hope
and he's pretty definitely not Snoke.
I get the feeling that Snoke is not, himself, capable of using the Force, but rather has an academic understanding of it works. Perhaps one of the Emperor's "advisors" who managed to survive the destruction of the second Death Star.
Personally, I'd have preferred that Maul was dead after being chopped in half. Then again, I'm also hostile to the Emperor surviving through a series of clones, and I think it stretches credibility to think that Luke's lightsaber was found floating around somewhere after falling out of Cloud City. It's fair to say I think there have been missteps in the narrative evolution of Star Wars. That being considered, since I would also find it more plausible and more dramatically satisfying to think Mace died when Palpatine sent him screaming out the window, Mace is therefore almost certainly alive, and has spent the years following Order 66 training Jar Jar in the ways of the Force.
But that ignores the fact that Jar-Jar was a Sith Lord Already .
Jar-Jar Binks is Darth Plagueis. The Tragedy of Darth Plagueis the Wise is simply another Sith lie.

Up until the humourous Jar Jar bit .. I was saluting this fella!
Yes .. Qui Gon, Maul, Yoda, Biggs, Windu, Darth, The Emps, Jabba, etc. have all carked it. If you're not a Force Ghost, you're not in the cast for the next film. Simples.
Man I pitty the clonetroopers who were sent after Mace.
Sam Jackson gonna whoop yo ass!

But its my favourite PT-era book!
If Mace Windu survived his encounter with Sheev, it would be uncharacteristic and un-Jedi of him to just cower away and go into hiding.
