Gravity is directly related to mass, so that's impossible. You'll always hit something, because something has to be there for there to be gravity pulling you.

Think of gravity like a trampoline. Planets are bowling balls. Things will roll towards the bowling balls. If the bowling ball isn't there, things won't move towards it. Space is actually like this, and it's fruitless to think of how things would be if the laws of the universe were different.

If there was a force like gravity making you go in one direction, you would constantly speed up, there would be no limit. After many years you would be going so fast that you travel widths of galaxies in a second. Since the amount of acceleration is low(while velocity is high), you wouldn't notice any G-force. Eventually you'd reach the edge of where the big bang has touched, and go into an endless void of nothingness.

hey

well, there really is no "down" in space. you probably would fall forever, or for a very, very, very, very, VERY long time. cause honestly, space is bigger than anything you can ever even possibly attempt to imagine.

so, it would be very close to "forever." cause i'm sure space does end somewhere, even if humans are far too small & incapable of figuring how big space is.

we're probably just a bunch of living organisms in a droplet of water. in a droplet of water, it's a universe for many living organisms.

getting off topic - anyway, there is no "downard" in space... so i guess you would fall until you died. and if you were immortal, you're gonna get bored really fast :]

i hope i helped!
