When you are trying to slide forward and the force of friction caused by a semi wet floor stops you, the upper part of your body is still in motion, while the lower part is at rest. Now depending on how fit or fat ( I am sorry, we are really getting down to the basics here) you are you fall backward or forward respectively.<BR/><BR/>@First Rain: Aaahhaaaa. Now apart from languages, we seem to be having lots more in common.<BR/><BR/>@Akash: Thank you, most useful excercise. If ever there was a doubt that science is your true religion, that has been dispelled completely now.<BR/><BR/>@Aparna: You are right. I do not perceive things correctly. I used to trust my maid everytime! Not any more.<BR/><BR/>@Treefrog: As mentioned above, no more blind faith for me. I stayed put on the sofa yesterday till the floor was as dry as the Sahara.Anwesha Chatterjeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14046031172838103941noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7902881.post-1145355720925601142006-04-18T03:22:00.000-07:002006-04-18T03:22:00.000-07:00This is intended to b a funny post,no????

I hope not. I hope not… On a slightly serious note, if recurrent slipping is really plaguing your life, you may try some simple ankle exercises that any good physiotherapist or a physical instructor may gladly let you know. One very simple yet useful one is the following,<BR/>1. Stand relaxed on both of your feet,<BR/>2. Lift an ankle and rest that leg on the toes only,<BR/>3. Rotate the ankle but make sure that the toes are not off the ground,<BR/>4. Do it for five minutes for each leg,<BR/>5. And then yaaahooooooooooooooAkashhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06575078198751269411noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7902881.post-1145246874477921112006-04-16T21:07:00.000-07:002006-04-16T21:07:00.000-07:00Hee hee hee!

But I thought me fainting during theatre practice in school and then in between a chemist shop and a grocery store in the market were just so me. Now I see other people have their personal falling afflictions too! *grin*First Rainhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17399581277129935484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7902881.post-1145242997069456652006-04-16T20:03:00.000-07:002006-04-16T20:03:00.000-07:00knee?whenever i fall on wet floors, its my posteri...knee?<BR/>whenever i fall on wet floors, its my posterior that suffers. do tell me abt this new-fangled way of falling!zoxclebhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18318804521785296544noreply@blogger.com
