You just LOVE to bring up old embarassments don't ya? It was 1975 or 1976, wintertime. We were on a very steep slanting street that was covered in ice. I, trying to be cool in high school, was wearing 3 inch heels when that damn freak storm hit... The bus was coming, my girl friends were running to catch the bus, I slipped and managed to grab one friends leg as I went down. If not, I would have probably busted my face on the concrete... I just got up, dusted myself off and boarded the bus while my friends were laughing so hard, I do believe they peed themselves. Yes, I did laugh too.

I fell off a bar stool in Warsaw in the summer of 2003. I hadn't realised how strong they mix the drinks over there. I tried to put on a look of nonchalance, but that's pretty hard when you're picking yourself off the floor in a bar. Great place, great people, great vodka, just be careful, that's all.

I fell off my chair in work last week. Someone had lowered it, and I got disorientated (doesn't take much) and misjudged my backside landing, and fell on the floor. Me and my collegue just laughed, it was funny. No harm done.

When I fall in public it's usually being clumsy. But I learned early in life to break dance back to my feet. Either people don't know what to make of it or like the style.

Last year I was running up my steps because it was raining. I tripped and fell onto my steps. I hadn't even noticed anyone was outside until a group of boys on a porch across the street from my house started laughing when I fell. Then I got up, started laughing, and ran in the house. I was so embarrased but it was still really funny.

When I was 19 I was running late for the bus so my friend gave me a ride up to the bus stop on the handlebars of his BMX bike...(I know, not very ladylike) I was slipping and I told him I was gonna fall, he said "no your not just hang on" Then it happened, I fell flat out on my face and he rode his bike up my behind and over my back...at a major 8 lane intersection. I was laughing so hard that I didnt feel that the palms of my hand were ripped up or the skinned knees. On a positive note, I did catch my bus!

Way back in 1995. I was in Hungary. I was in the Air Force and living in tent city. There were latrines located in the back so on my way there I ran into an ARMY brat walking towards me and did the whole road runner routine and fell flat on his back. He did this right in front of me. I laughed so hard that I also lost my footing and fell down right beside him. We laughed our asses off HARD and became really good friends from that day on.

Answer # 2 When I was about 8 years old my brother challenged me to a race. Me on foot and him on a bike. We started off down the street neck and neck until I started gaining on him. I pulled past him and before I knew it------He ran my ass over face first on the pavement. The funny thing was the bike prints that were on the back of my pants and shirt.
