View Full Version : What's the stupidest object you have tripped over?
Grim Reaper 17-05-2008, 16:58 As above.
Mine is a Lightsabre about 5 minutes ago. As for some reason unbeknown to myself I didn't see the bright orange, 1 metre long, Jedi weapon at my feet. :rant:
How about you??
The bottom drawer of a desk having shut the top drawer and not bothering to check the others.

As for drawers, I've not tripped over them but I've walked into many. :hihi:

muddycoffee 17-05-2008, 17:39 My slippers.
I fall over them every time I walk upstairs. I now take them off at the bottom now.

A tree.
I was running around maniacaly and got my foot hooked on the trunk.
I fell flat on my face infront of the guy I secretly fancied, but I didn't spill a drop of my rum. :|
foxforcefive 17-05-2008, 17:54 My worst trip was tripping over a bag my brother had left at the top of the stairs when I was about 17, I tripped over the bag and landed with my face on the blanket box, snapping the corner off it (really). My mum was gutted she thought it was solid oak.
I had to go to hospital to have the splinters removed from my eyeball and had 6 stitches in the top of my nose, which has since scarred.
The dog. He had a habit of sneaking up behind silently, then when you turned round in the kitchen too quick, that was it, you were going over him. :hihi:

I used to trip over my old cat Made quite regularly. Although I think it was a ploy of his to dispose of me. :suspect:

Bikertec 17-05-2008, 20:14 Only thing I can think of is the cat, but I have walked into tree's and lamp posts if that counts.:hihi::hihi::loopy:
I once tripped over a whole pile of baskets in a shop door way. To my horror as I started to trip I realised that if I tried to stop myself I was going to fall onto a small child stood nearby. The only thing I could do as I stumbled along was take said small child with me - I sort of clutched his shoulders & he kind of bounced along with me. Once I'd come to a stop I took the (rather surprised but not upset) child back to his mum. I can still see the look on her face now...
I embarrass myself so often that I cope well with shame and utter humiliation but on this occasion my ability to adopt a nonchalant expression was stretched to the extreme :blush:

I remember walking past a large display of pop bottles that collapsed has I passed, so embarrassing as I didn't even touch them. Quickly left the shop.:(

Phanerothyme 19-05-2008, 12:50 A dead fox.Did you trip over it or tread in it?
I trod in a dead deer once. I had to stop and throw up right there and then, and once again at the outside tap as I tried to clean decomposing ungulate from my right leg.

I once stood in a very badly decaying sheep. It was disgusting. It's head came off as it happened too. The smell was unbelievable.

I remember when we were kids going to Wharncliffe woods every day in the summer, and we used to drink from a little pool that was fed by a stream that came off the moors.
Every evening this pool would cloud over for some reason and after a few hours go crystal clear again, and one evening we were late and went for our usual drink.
We kneeled by the side of the pool and started drinking and as the water cleared we noticed a badly decaying sheep looking up at us through the water.
We had been drinking what was in effect, sheep gravy for the best part of that week.

My Baby Brother - several times. You would think you could spot a blonde three year old from a mile away, especially with a gob the size of his!
