Falling down stairs

[SilentCom]

Falling down the stairs ususally doesn't hurt too much. The exception is when the stairs are made of concrete and you fall face first. I can't say this out of personal experience but I would assume concrete + face = pain.

I almost never fall down stairs, but I've fallen up stairs quite a few times. Usually the worst that's happened is that I've stubbed a toe or banged my knee or something. Which is interesting, as I have to walk down a flight of stairs every time I leave my flat, and up them again when I come home. I live on the first floor. And everywhere I've lived since moving to this city two and a half years ago has had stairs to get to the flat/house. First year I was on the fifth floor of my building, and we couldn't use the lift unless we had special permission (only granted to the disabled and injured people, like when my friend on another floor broke her leg one time). Second year, the house I lived in was built on a hill and there was an entire flight of stairs to climb just to get to the front door .

Besides, everyone knows ladders are superior. Less wasted space, keeps the fat kids out.

To be honest ladders scare me more. [http://i585.photobucket.com/albums/ss297/stcasey34/ladder.gif?t=1288459954]

Besides, you can't dance on them.

The best ladders are those used by technical climbers that hang free and are made out of webbing. been on a few and I still hate them.

I'm sure someone else has said this or will eventually but it's much worse to fall up the stairs.
My sister managed to get halfway up the stairs via-falling and no she wasn't drunk.

The thing with falling upstairs is one - it's much more embarrassing since you'd practically just manged to do something so stupid it defies several laws of physics making it look like you almost tried to do it - meaning you look like you deserved it and any pain it brings.
Falling up the stairs sucks
