Fecing dangerous 12000 people a year die doing it but obviously not the same ones every year. A lot of people die while sleeping but not the same ones who fall down the stairs 😴 So if you cut down on your sleep and buy a one storey house you could potentially live longer.

I've noticed recently in the news that there are people dying now who have never died before.

My mother who lived in a council block of four elderly people flats died after falling down the "concrete" stairs. They had to be concrete for fire regulations.

I was on a course a few years ago and the instructor told us a sad personal tale. His wife had cancer and he got up in the night to go to bathroom and didn’t put the light on so as not to disturb her, he fell downstairs, and whilst he was in hospital in quite a bad way his wife died and he wasn’t fit to attend her funeral. With hindsight I’m just wondering why they didn’t wait until he was better but perhaps it was months.

Many years ago I attended a callout to a young man - late teens - who had slipped on a concrete staircase at the bottom of which was a door with a glass panel through which his arm had gone. The glass smashed of course and the weight of his fall caused the sharp glass edge to sever his harm neatly at the elbow joint. Arm one side of the door, person the other.
He lived. A first aider had closed the brachial artery with thumb pressure. The arm wasn't reattached. He successfully sued the building owner but the details, are now sketchy in my mind.
It was pretty horrific TBH, even for someone used to trauma.
