Sorry enough to try and render assistance.
Pavement is hard.

I would never laugh at someone's pain, but if they just slip and are okay, it's kinda funny I guess.

depends sometimes you can't help but laugh but i always make sure the person is ok. i have fell before and i laughed at myself. +5

I would feel sympathy for them. But would be right there trying to help them up if they looked like they needed help. Especially an elderly person. +5
by Gene H on November 22nd, 2009
Well, it depends. I offer to help them up and if they're laughing, so do I.

It can go both ways. Anyone who has lived where there are winters has fallen on ice before. In rare cases it can have a dangerous outcome. Elderly persons may suffer broken bones. At least one famous person, Dr. Robert Atkins of the Atkins diet plan, died of injuries incurred from a fall on ice.

Both, I would probably laugh while helping them up.

I know I have a H-O-R-R-I-B-L-E sense of humor, but I LAUGH! Yeah. . . . .I do!

If they're 'youngish,' I'll laugh. (Unless they're obviously injured.)
If they're elderly, I'll wince and offer to help them out.

Iy's never funny when someone falls. I'd never laugh.
by Ubiquitous Name on November 22nd, 2009
Probably snicker and try to help out.
If it's someone I dislike I laugh as loud as possible and see if I can't offer a helping hand, to see if I can't trip them later. :P

by Thriftymaid on November 22nd, 2009
I help if they need help. If it was funny, I'll laugh.

Would you be flattered or offended to hear someone describing you as a "wonk?"
