ur dada so buff he falls significantly faster than g

Tap for spoiler
The bowling ball isn’t falling to the earth faster. The higher perceived acceleration is due to the earth falling toward the bowling ball.
A feather has smaller cross-section area than a bowling ball. But drag acceleration is proportional to the cross-section area divided by the mass (and this quantity is indeed smaller for the bowling ball).
Anyway the hypothetical scenario in this meme is a perfect vacuum. Check my other comments to see why it still works.
Depends on the feather and the bowling ball. Even relatively small (by volume) feathers might outdo a bowling ball thanks to the numerous fine shapes they have.
I meant cross-section area, not surface area. Sorry. Edited my comment above.
An average bowling ball is 8.5 inches in diameter, giving it a cross sectional surface area of roughly 60 sq in. Restricting ourselves to feathers made by non-human animals, the longest feather measured was on a Yokohama chicken at 34 feet / 400+ inches. I can't find the width of the feather, but it's still likely it outdoes an average bowling ball.
That is one very impressive feather.
