Those wheeled shoes are called “HEELYS.” I know this because my seven year old daughter has been through a couple pair of these joints in the last year. When she first got em’ she fell ALL the time trying to keep up w/her little buddy next door who rocks his daily. I laughed my azz off back then and now even though she’s somewhat mastered those things she STILL falls from time to time and I STILL laugh my azz off. There is always some comedic value in seeing a little kid wipe out- even if it’s your own.

Random falls don’t make me laugh all that much. I guess I’m just too clumsy myself and empathise with them. But I’m with Spaniard about the falling down when you’re doing something you’re not supposed to do, or it’s part of a game or something.

Just a few weeks ago, I took a hard, and I mean HARD fall. That shit wasn’t funny. And if someone would’ve laughed, I might be in jail now. The bruises and sprains are just now going away.

I agree with all that has been said– if you fall and you get up and you’re not seriously injured, I’mo holler.

I think people falling (especially when they’re doing something they shouldn’t be) is funny at any age. However, at a certain point, it gets downright hilarious because as we get older, we try to break our fall. All that flailing and trying to catch oneself just adds to the hilarity.

Notice that most kids just hit the floor without too much of a fight; I guess they know that at their young age, some falling is bound to occur.

I only find falling funny if you are doing something you should not be doing anyway. If someone slips on the curb or trips over something misplaced on the floor I don’t find it funny at all. I’m not really sure why anyone finds humor in it.

Even with the fear of being bludgeoned by Kirk I will admit I wait until my own son gets up, or at least looks up with all his teeth, and I laugh my ass off.

Falling is good for you. It humbles you. We all could use some humbling.

First I’m gonna pause for a few seconds and make sure there are no broken bones, and then fall out laughin from seeing the kid bust they’re hind parts on the ground. Always funny.

I love a good fall, but let’s get to the more important issue: where is this magical Jamaican restaurant that actually has the shit you want?

Aight, I’ll say it- I don’t even consider the serious injury thing before I start laughing. I may be foul for it, but witnessing a good fall is too funny to consider the consequences.

I was hit by a car while crossing the street with my man in 8th grade, breaking my collarbone. Before I hit the ground, I could hear dude cracking up. I couldn’t even be mad, because once I stood up, I realized- damn, I just got hit by a car…that didn’t stop! It was so ridiculous, I had to laugh.

I’m going to laugh as long as as there is no serious injury. If you are my friend, then I’ll help you up first….then I’ll laugh.
