I'm not that active, but never dead.
First of all, this post belongs in New Mombassa, not here. This forum is for the discussion of Bungie's supporting Community.
The grenades have terminal velocity, in layman's terms, they have a maximim speed at which they fall. Since they cannot fall faster than their terminal speed, that is why they always bounce the same height. As to Master Cheif falling onto a warthog from such a height, he survives because his suit absorbs most of the impact.
Since his suit absorbs almost all of the impact, there is very little force left, a small enough amount for the warthog to absorb.
Theoretically, if Master Chief overrode his suits systems, he could hit the warthog and destroy it. However, Master Cheif would then die of the impact as well.
