Probably:

Drop the egg 10 meters. After .64 seconds, the egg falls 2 meters, but doesn't break. Yet.

Alternative(s):

Drop the egg .1 meters 20 times. Cumulative falling distance is 2 meters.

You just need to

choose a suitable egg. An insect egg would work, or a turtle egg, or a dinosaur egg ...
