What about how to get up. I’m 70. I fell and it took 15 minutes to get back up! I still can’t believe it was that difficult

Thank you for this very important video. It certainly needs to be shared with those who don’t know and especially among the geriatric community.

Careful on this....have seen other falling methods that say turning to the side is what can cause hip fractures.

I have been practicing MMA for five years not much experience but from what I know is that don't reach out or turn your hips period, the three main falls I am aware of are backfalls not like the ones they have shown this is more a cannonball ending with spreading the impact by slapping the ground with head tucked into your chest the main gripe I had with the backfalls though was the demonstrator having her legs straight they should be bent until contact has been made with the ground. Side falls are what they have been doing most of the time which are very ineffective and cause the most injury, as it leaves a lot of room to damage your rib cage. Falling forward was the reason I typed this comment though as I was astounded with some of the mistakes she made first she reached out, you should always make a planking position for trips with low momentum, for high momentum you should do a simple tuck & roll. That's the end of my Way longer than it should be T.E.D talk.

My MMA is called kyuki-do it's a mixture of hapkido, judo, and taekwon-do.

@@nuggies6825 Chiropractors are not real doctors and you shouldn't be listening to them for any advice. Half of their stuff is made up, or they draw from other fake alternative medicine areas. Martial artists know how to fall. They have been working out how to do it for centuries. Certain sports like skateboarding or cycling are good to look at for tips on how to fall at speed. And, of course, stuntmen. Also, just watching a video is next to useless. This is something you have to practice, since you need to be able to do it automatically when you are surprised. I'm now in my 50s and have fallen 3 times in the last 10 years. Each time I have hurt myself and am currently sporting a fractured rib. All my martial arts training was in striking styles so I never learned to break fall. Once this rib heals, I'm going to start practising and I am not going to be doing anything in this video. One final warning. Any video that does not show you how to gradually work your way up to breaking a full fall is dangerous. Find a better video that starts off with you already on the ground.

Exactly! I'm surprised by the amount of people who literally don't know how to fall even if they're young

@@charmelink No. If they teach how to fall, they should get expert advice. Not this woman who is clearly making it up. Do not do anything shown in this video.

I've seen a different method than this for falling. I would like for the two to be compared to see which one is better and why.

Schneider National spends over a million dollars a year providing work boots to their drivers. It saves them 5 million a year in slip and fall injuries. This video is helpful for everyone. And some of us are learning to fall for theater work

Tried this mutiple times, ouch it hurts trying but it works

No it doesn't. She has no clue what she is talking about, like a lot of chiropractors. Lots of people who actually know how to fall are saying her advice is really bad. Also, trying multiple times is useless. You need to find some good techniques, and then practice a lot. You need to be able to pull this off at any time without even thinking about it.

I'm not sure about this technique. By rolling sideways, wouldn't you be increasing your change of a hip fracture?

@charmelink 2 жыл бұрын

I think hip fractures usually come when you fall on your rear

The only falling this woman is an expert in is getting people to fall for her BS.

I do not advise falling on your sides because it increases your likelihood of fracturing your pelvic bone/hip. Hip fractures are detrimental in terms of long-term prognosis. The best way to fall is forward onto your knees and forearms to absorb contact.

From what I've seen on the internet, this is the dumbest way to fall, maybe expect from deliberately falling on your head. You'll sprain your wrists, hit your eat and hurt your hips. Was this aired in the national television? For people who want to know how to fall properly I suggest searching for "how to break fall" in Judo or BJJ.
