Today, I was just walking down a straight hall that has no bumps or cracks, and it was indoors so no wind, and just fell down. My legs didn't just give out, i just fell on my face. It was extremely peculiar.

yet sometimes when one is lost in thought, the legs just give in and there one goes humpty-dumpty!

Emma...Experiences such as what you have described generally don't happen for no reason. I don't want to frighten you, but the condition you describe could be a symptom of an underlying problem, possibly neurological. Has it or something like it happened to you before? Have you suddenly felt faint, dizzy, or weak without explanation or other obvious external cause? Have you had problems with keeping your balance?
I am not a doctor, but if it happened to me, I would err on the side of getting this checked out. Don't ignore it.
