Well, if I actually fell on my face, I'd probably be trying to stop the bleeding from my nose and/or mouth. And, hopefully the people would be trying to help me also. If you meant "fall on your face" figuratively, well I'd most definitely laugh hysterically. There is something about people falling down that is just really funny, as long as there are no serious injuries, usually just wounded pride. Not me, I'd laugh my butt off.

It's definitely a funny scenario... no doubt. :)
But it actually happened to me at work, in 2003. I walked through a doorway the morning after the whole city had been flooded and busted my A$$! I'm left-handed and evidently "left-footed" as well. I put my left foot thru the doorway onto a tiled floor after I'd walked across a very wet rug that had been pulled outside and I pretty much did the splits IN the doorway. OBVIOUSLY I didn't fall on my face but that's only because I didn't have time to bring my right foot and leg past the doorway.... I fell on it instead and landed very hard right on the inside of my knee. People rounded the corner of the hallway and WOW did I ever feel like SUCH a fool! I know my face had to be red!! I was extremely embarassed!! At first they wanted to help me up but I said I could do it. I reached back to the door which had the safety bars on it and pulled myself up. When I went to walk inside, to get outa the doorway, my right leg wouldn't support me. Long story short, I ruptured the ligament on the inside of my right knee and was out of work for SIX WEEKS! UGH!!
Thank God for Workman's Comp!!! :)
But let me tell ya, I'd much rather have been at work!! The pain was excruciating and I live fifteen steps up to my apartment door!! I ended up doing 2 months of rehab AFTER being outa work for 6 weeks. My knee will never really be the same and it's funny NOW, but I was in very bad shape and it took TWO doctors for me to finally get approved for rehab for my knee. (SOME doctors aren't worth the paper their license is printed on!!!!!)
So now you're prolly saying, "And THIS was the short version of the story"? Well actually it IS! LOL
I had no help w/groceries and getting back and forth to the doc's office(s) and I really learned what it was all about when it comes to living alone and taking care of yourself, BY YOURSELF!!!
I hope I didn't put anyone to sleep! And I bet you were looking for some short and/or funny stories! :)

First, get up off the floor, probably turn really red in the face, try to laugh if I wasn't missing any teeth, & carry on to a place where I could have a nice glass of wine.

Ouch ! that happened to a lady at the beginning of Mass Sunday -she dislocated her shoulder and hurt her ankle.
I fell on the dance floor at my sisters wedding-nope I wasn't drinking -just a klutz.
My nylons were torn to shreds and waving like gossamer flags in the breeze . We all had a good laugh !

When I bust my toosh in public I usually sit on the ground for a moment and giggle. The slowly get up and start assessing my injuries. I make a joke out of it. Happens to everyone. No need to feel uncommon!

That happened to me not long ago at Universal Studios. This guy in a mummy costume started chasing me (after getting off the Mummy ride). I ran and fell flat on my face hard. I cussed out the guy and cried when I walked away cause I was in pain......Grrrrr, that makes me mad!

I'm pretty clumsy, so that happens alot. I just get up and go on. I stopped being embarrassed by it when i was a teenager. Now when I do something like walk into a door, then I get embarrassed.

I've done it before and I am sure it is bound to happen again. Subway-First time in New York. Utter humiliation. I get up, brush myself off, and pretend not to be bothered. Secretly though the incident is replayed over and over in my head, I will relive each humiliating second over and over, and I will beat myself up about how lame I can be.

Get up and do a little dance and try not to fall again from laughing so hard.

I've done that..I usually go into hysterics and start laughing so much that I can't even get up. Other people laugh too, but I'm not sure if they're laughing with me or at me.
