Dating - Good/Bad Experiences

Cyn-BMW · 09-20-2021, 06:29 PM

I wasn’t going to post this here. But, since it’s gotten kinda boring here and I’m feeling a little better, I’ll go ahead and post it. It’s kind of embarrassing. I posted this the other day in The Confess Here thread. But, I didn’t get into why I was going there. I was going to go spend the night with one of my girlfriends. So, I guess you could say, it’s date related. This was last Thursday night, about 10:00 PM. So, here it is:

So, last night I thought I killed or really effed myself up. I was going downstairs in the guest house, which has a very steep, metal spiral staircase. I had my cell phone, ipad, charger and a cord in my left hand and I had a small backpack on my right shoulder. I didn’t turn the light on. I took a step down on the first step. I reached down with my right hand for the rail and my backpack slipped off my shoulder. The backpack got in the way of grabbing the rail, I lost my balance and started falling forward and to the left, because the spiral goes to the left or counter clockwise. I was able to reach up with my right hand and grab the rail that’s between the top of the stairs and the wall. But, my feet had slipped out from under me and down I went, all the way to the bottom, into the darkness. On the way down I thought to myself, “I’m either going to break my neck or split my head open when I hit the tile floor at the bottom”. And I thought about all the crazy stuff I’ve done and I’m going to end up dead or paralyzed on a staircase. So, when I hit the bottom, I had some pain in various places. I layed there for about 30 seconds, got up and did a little pain dance. The same dance I’ve done probably a 100 times after falling off my motorcycle or a horse. I need better choreography though. Although, the dance is different every time, depending on what hurts. My cell phone and iPad ended up behind the staircase and not a scratch on them. My backpacked ended up about 10 feet away, in front of the fireplace. The guest house bedroom is right there. So, I just got undressed and crawled in bed. I woke up with lots of bruises and a couple scraps. My ring finger on my right hand hurts and my left hamstring is very sore. I feel so stupid and I didn’t have anything to drink, so I can’t even blame it on alcohol. I feel like I dodged a bullet last night. I’m still recovering from surgery. The last three weeks have been really difficult. I think I need to lay on the couch for a couple weeks and just chill out. No motorcycle riding, no fast cars, just chill out a little. Oh wait, that’s right, it was just a staircase. It’s amazing how shit can go wrong so fast. It was like, what the fuck just happened!

It’s hard to tell. But, it looks like she may have broken her right ankle.

IllSic_Design · 09-20-2021, 08:56 PM

It's fake, believe she did that(falling on her face) all the time for likes or views. I read about this a few years back

Agree it's massively overdramatised for a walking pace whoopsie and flinging the popcorn tub into the air is an overreaction..why would it be filmed in the first place.

No, a dead-head is in fact an Aircrewmember in uniform but off duty onto his way back to home base. Otherwise you wouldnt be recognized as one of them

M5Rick · 09-21-2021, 06:50 AM

Dead head can apply to others also i.e. operator on a train with no passengers or cargo or a driver with empty bus going back to depot or a starting point. I've also heard a song lyric with 'a dead head sticker on a Cadillac' to add to the plot haha

This is what jumps out to me - what are the odds that someone would happen to be recording this person at this exact moment when this incidentally happens? Why would they be recording her? Very low probability of being real...

Tambohamilton · 09-21-2021, 08:04 AM

Good point. There are many many videos in existence, where I wonder what the chances are of someone recording at exactly that moment!

That was quite a long/high fall; When stuff happens to me, I usually dont even have enough time to say "oh sh*t".

Haha, I was just kidding (but I still like my definition better).

Chick with the popcorn has a channel and it's full of her tripping over her feet. It's how she gets views. They're all staged and BS.

I noticed this today. It’s where my feet slammed up against the wall at the bottom of the stairs. That’s 5 feet high. I have no idea how my feet got that high up the wall. I must have been upside down when I hit the wall.

Tambohamilton · 09-21-2021, 04:51 PM

that's impressive! Glad you're ok

Tambohamilton · 09-21-2021, 05:23 PM

Yeah where's the person who filmed popcorn girl when you need them?

Mine wasn’t staged, so hence, no video.
