The pull is larger on the black ball, however, the acceleration caused by that pull is relatively the same, due to the mass of normal objects is far far far smaller than the mass of the planet. So it's not the same, people. It's almost the same. 2 objects clash at each other, the earth is pulling the ball, but the ball is also pulling the earth, so the heavier ball, the ball that has a higher mass, shall reach the surface first if you take into account how the earth is also being pulled towards the ball.

@onebeets That's because you only took into account the Earth Gravitational field. What about the ball gravitational field? The ball is also pulling the Earth, it's just significantly smaller.
