One can only know through experience, if you've tested it personally. I know gravity works because I've picked something up and dropped it, thus experienced it. I believe that jumping off a building will hurt because in every instance I've ever seen other people do it, it hurt them, and because I have a working understanding of physics and the limitations of the human anatomy.
Then there's faith, of course. Jumping off a building will hurt because someone told me it will.
I know falling hurts, because every time I've fallen, it has hurt to some degree. My knowledge of the relationship between falling and feeling pain, which I earned through experience, allows me to know that falling from atop a building will hurt.
