Real-life slapstickFact: 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

Physics in action.I want to go home so head for the bus that will take me there.
Unfortunately as I turn the corner into the road where the bus-stop is I see the bus just starting to pull away.
"Bugger" is the polite version of what I thought, but I noticed that the bus doors were still open.
So I sprinted like a (special olympics) champion and leapt for the open door, when an odd thing happened.
Rather than the usual thing of the bus driver having fun and closing the doors, he stopped the bus to allow me to get on.
Trouble is I'm moving at a pace to compensate for the speed of the moving bus. So I fly into the bus, meeting the windscreen at a great pace.
Classy. Though I have to say the rest of the passengers seemed to appreciate my actions.
