Here is the scenario, you are walking down the going somewhere and then suddenly you fall down because of something what will you do? This scenario happened to me a few years back, I think I was in 2nd year high school. It was raining very very hard then I bought something from the canteen then when I was going back to our room I suddenly slip {is that correct?} or if you understand tagalog nadulas or I think fell down, because the ground was wet. What I did was I stand up and continued to walk, but I knew that almost everyone at our school saw that and I when I think of It, I think I should have done was just smiled and walked... ^^ it was a funny and embarassing moment...

Someone told me once that I was the only person they knew who could trip on air! I used to trip all the time! I one time fell when I was out on a long hike. I was seriously hurt. I immediately thought about the bears and wild cats in the woods. I hobbled out of the woods that day because I was too scared to sit there! I don't go anymore by myself, not on the real long hikes anyway!

hi arvintot I was walking around the s ide of my favorite restuarant on my way to breakfast out when I fell hard landing on my left shoulder,smadhing the bones.In pain ane embarrassed I think I would have screamed had anyone laughed. they did not laugh b ut were lookie loos googling at me. but one oldrer couple did help me. they phoned for the paramedics. the para medics were there in just a few minutes.I was xrayed in ER and amitted to the hospital for surgery. I had to have all my shoulder joint replaced with a bionic steel and plastic shoulder joint.so all falls are not funny ha ha at all.some are serious.

I have fell down walking on the street many of times. Yes it is embarassing and I don't understand why people think it is so funny until it happens to them. I just get right back up again and start walking.

This happened to me last week. I was crossing a street when I tripped on a brick that was above the rest. I fell lightly, breaking my fall with both my hands. I wasn't hurt. I heard a lady on the street call, "Are you all right?" I yelled back "yes!" A burrito vendor walked toward me and said he had seen several people fall because of the bricks on that street and that he had called the city about the problem. I had very little embarassment but just kind've felt that it was one of those things that happen. That's life!
