Two identical balls roll off the edge of a horizontal table top. One leaves traveling at twice the speed of the other. Which ball hits the floor first? Why?

what do you think? It does you no value for me to do the thinking first.
I would say they hit the ground at the same time but im not sure
The balls have different horizontal components of their velocities, but the time of falling down is determined by the time of vertical motion which is identical for both objects t =sqrt(2h/g).
