If I fall down in the middle of a forest and there is no one else around, do I make a noise ?

Yes - of course you make a noise - most people do when they scream!@

Depends on your definition of noise. If you fall down, you will create pressure waves. If your definition of noise requires you to have some form of detecting and /or interpreting these waves (excluding yourself), i.e., a receiver, then you do not make a noise. If your definition does not require a receiver, then you do make a noise.

I don't think it is you who make the noise, the noise will be a thud that comes when your body hits the ground, but you might shriek either from pain or surprise.

you don't make noise cause it can only be noise if someone hears but you make a sound.

Nope.
But if I answer this question and there are no women around.... Am I still wrong?

Sure, but if there is no one there to hear it, does your sound have meaning?
