I just want to make sure what it is we're disagreeing about. Are you saying that if you took 2 guys, both of them jumping from the same altitude, but one is doing it within the normal atmosphere while the other is doing it inside some kind of vacuum tube, that the first guy would feel the jump while the other wouldn't?
If so, why exactly? My wikipedia quote shows that you don't need rushing air to make your body feel the effects of weightlessness. You were standing on the platform, creating the sensation of weight within your body, but then you jump, resulting in the cessation of that sensation. Not sure what else to say.
Would a vacuum make the drop feel less dramatic? Sure, because of the lack of air rushing around you. But that doesn't mean you won't feel ANYTHING.
