Scenario:

You are casually walking up the stairs and suddenly trip. Oooh, that's gotta hurt! Can your day get any worse? Somebody sees you. Okay. Just got worse.

Well, my friend. Although that person may want to burst into tears of laughter, here's how to not make a fool of yourself...

Do NOT:

Blame it on the 'invisible banana skin'. No, person. That excuse is just lame, now. And there is no way that you can prove it, unless you happen to have actually tripped on a banana skin, that is. (Then you may do this, but what you should do is much better, trust me.)

Do an impromptu press up. That doesn't work either. You'll just end up making an even bigger fool of yourself... Who does random push-ups in the middle of the stairs? 

Okay... What you have been waiting for...

Do:

JUST LIE THERE AND PRETEND TO BE DEAD.

 It would raise concern. Not only have you prevented yourself from looking like a fool, you have made the person who comes to help you look like a fool! 

WARNING: be careful when you fall. It hurts.

WARNING 2: remember Karma - what comes around goes around... Oh Lord...
