Or, uh, people have a better idea of whether or not a fall would have a good chance of injuring them, based on a lifetime of being themselves and knowing how likely they are to land hard (vs roll) when they fall, than a researcher who knows little about them?
- PaulHoule 3y agoPeople have been impressed by my ability to catch myself from slipping on ice, tripping, etc. I am not looking forward to when my performance degrades and I can't do it anymore. There's certainly a viewpoint in athletic training and self-realization (e.g. "Outward Bound") that people often don't know what they are capable of, and anybody in that field has some demos they can get people to do that will usually blow them away but a lot of people get hurt and don't come back to trainers who don't respect their physical limitations.
