Have you noticed that if a person trips

hi jugsjugs well perhaps that person who tripped did not want to get the stupid laughter that comes from so many when they'see you fall.to me as an ex medical person, I scare when I see somebody trip as I am worried they will fall and get hurt. Tripping or falling are not things people should laugh about as those can cause bad accidents. I tripped, fell and smashed] my shoulder bones, and had to have a shoulder joint replacement so now I have a metal and plastic shoulder joint, tripping, falling are not really funny at all.

Yes, I've noticed that. I used to look around to see if anyone noticed but not anymore. I just don't care. I'm just glad to be in one piece and not to have broken any bones!

yes I observed too. it is shameful to see if you trip. Some people will find it funny it depends on how it looks like, some of them don’t mind you. I also look around if I tripped and I do feel shy when people see it. Sadly there are more immature people around that find enjoyment when they see some thing like that, because it is not everyday that we experience tripping . I guess it is a natural reaction for us to check is someone see it.

not me I fall all the time due to a spnal problem an when I trip I say het I meant to do that

I think 90% of it is due to the fact of embarrassment, and don't want to look foolish if someone is watching. I'm sure it is a nature reaction in the matter of the person tripping.

LOL I would just push them to keep it real lol

Nopers, jugsjugs, that is something I never noticed. I have noticed, though, that they often go on acting as though nothing had happened. Turning a trip from a fall to a skip sounds like quite a feat of agility. I should like to see that!

Now I've seen people look around to see if anyone saw them trip, but I don't think I've seen anyone skip to mask that they tripped! I guess that's a pretty good idea though I don't know if it actually works. I've laughed, or giggled nervously and said "I meant to do that" before but that's about it!

Not all. Some laugh it off and move on. Some do try to make it look different than it is. Others even make out like it is much worse than it is and they are hurt badly. I think humor is the best medicine and should always be used in cases like this but alot of people don't agree.

Hey jugs! That's a very embarrassing thing to fall and have others look at you! I should know! I am very clumsy and have fallen quite a few times! I don't pretend that I was skipping though since I am way too old to have been skipping in the first place and no one would have believed it anyway!lol I just try to get up (and hopefully I can without any broken bones) and hopefully my pride isn't broken either!

Skipping that is funny. Well I guess its embarrassing to fall. I remember helping a lady a few years ago who fell on ice. She was very overweight and I kept trying to help her but she kept falling. It wasn't funny then but now when you think about it......! Anyway she was a bit embarrassed because she was so heavy that is why I couldn't get her up. I'm surprised I didn't fall on top of her. It could have easily been a cartoon skit.

i haven't actually noticed,but then again i haven't seen anyone trip for a long time

Ha ha - that is true! It's super embarrasing to trip in public!! I guess I tend to look back - to see what I tripped over. And most of the time I tripped over my own feet - ha ha!!

ha ha ha! that made me laugh, skipping! and come to think of it yea i have noticed people\including myself doing this! its even funnier to see someone across the way walk into a spiderweb, and you cant see the web, but you know its one as they swat the sky furiously! makes me laugh!

What I've noticed is they look to see what it is that tripped them.
