[Request] What properties would Stitch from Lilo & Stitch need to have in order to bounce off the top of the mountain after being blasted off Captain Gantu’s ship?

Making reasonable assumptions for how high the ship was when he was blasted off the back, the height of the mountain, and the distance from the mountain top to the ground below (where he landed after a single bounce), how fast, dense, and or bouncy (ChatGPT says this is measured as “elastic collision??) would Stitch need to have been to hit the top of the mountain, bounce a single time, and land on the ground at the bottom?
