in star wars why can't Jedi can't lift themselves?
The Jedi are able to levatate things right even starfighters right? well if they can lift that then why did Mace fall out of a window and die... even Palpatine fell to his death. I think Vader even fell in lava or something didn't he? Before people say they were distracted because they were in pain and couldn't focus luke while falling of course called his sister in part 5 in her head. now question again why can't they lift themselves?
how do you need a black belt before you can learn to lift yourself? luke was rocking his x wing after training with yoda after a few weeks are you seriously saying yoda told him sorry if you wanna learn to lift yourself you gotta buy the advanced dvd? vader and obi- wan were jumping from speeder to speeder chasing an alien going at least 60 miles an hour. I think that requires more concentration than standing still in the air. of course I never done it so I really don't know.
joker in that case palpatine being almost as strong as mace should have been able to lift himself and since he wasn't hurt at all he should have gotten out of the hole. the those clones of him would have never been activated.

They were kinda selective about that power.
Remember episode I during the final battle with Maul when Obi wan leaps like 60 feet or something onto the catwalk where Qui-gon and maul were fighting? I think there might have been some force involvement in that.

If you read a lot about Star Wars you'd know theres a possibility being considered that Mace Windu didn't really die and he did levitate himself onto a ledge and survive so Jedi's can levitate themselves but only the real experienced ones.

In order for them to use the force they have to focus and in the situations that you mentioned, they were in grave danger and the strength of their surroundings (enemies and environment) was too much for them to handle
Edit: Levitating and jumping from one thing to another is completely different and regardless, they are movies and if you watch the original ones first and then watch the newer ones, you will realize that the jedi's are able to do more things than they could in the original trilogy, even though it is supposed to be taking place before. Its the special effects and George Lucas' screenplay that makes them able to do certain things.
