Tripped on the top stair and got up close and personal with a tile floor. Picked up some trivial scrapes and spilled my coffee. Avoided breaking the cup so that's a win.

You know what I didn't do? Boomer it up and "break my hip", "ambulance", "haaaalp I've fallen and I can't get up", or some unhealthy fatass outcome. I've seen waaaay too many people who started horking donuts and stopped going to the gym as they aged and seen how that turns out. They'd have been in the ER if they took that same fall.

Falling is scary when you're older. Exercise is vital as is eating properly and getting good nutrition. Maintaining bone density is paramount so you don't shatter when you hit the ground.

No kidding. You have to put bones under strain from exercise or they'll shatter like glass from falls.
