This is a question Real-life slapstick

Fact: When someone walks into a lamp-post it makes a very satisfying and hugely hilarious "Ding!" noise. However, it is not quite so funny when the post is in the middle of town and you are the victim. Tell us about hilarious prat-falls.

Thanks to Bob Todd for the suggestion

So funny I couldn't laugh for about ten seconds...
And then the floodgates opened.
So I'm at a wedding, a backyard job, and the bride's parents are, for the first time in years, in the same place at the same time.
There's no real animosity any more, they just divorced and moved on.
Did I mention they're both blind? Oh well they are. Her father completely and her mother almost completely.
So.
There's the ceremony, the speeches, the food, then the music starts up and the bridal waltz takes place on the patio.
I'm inside, chatting to the father of the bride and his new wife (also blind) when the mum (the one who can just see, keep up here), comes over to interupt.
"Come on you two, lets get out on the dance floor and show them how it's done!" she says.
She takes one on each arm and skips happily off to the dance floor, walking straight through the gap in the sliding doors while the other two slammed face first into the glass on either side.
According to someone who was facing me, I somehow managed to get a look of complete horror and utter delight on my dial at the same time.
