Aye, get Kylie on the case.

Possibly due to a combination of suboptimal running technique and coming off a slight downward gradient on to the level, so on his next step the ground was a bit higher than that foot expected, and that foot was too close to the ground to adjust. If he had either been running better (picking his feet up higher off the ground) or not hit the gradient change, he’d never have stumbled.

Props for just keeping going.

That vid needs a loud cymbal crash when he hits the ground.

I was of the impression that a pratfall is specifically a fall onto one’s butt. This isn’t that.

But then I looked it up, and although I’m not wrong, it’s also no longer the only meaning. So I guess I’ll begrudgingly allow it…

Speaking of falls at football games…

(Don’t worry; the kitty is okay. The cheer from the crowd was about as loud as you’d expect from the winning team’s fans at a college championship.)
