Random Stair Thread of Strangeness!

Stairs are my nemesis. :-/ I like my bedroom on the first floor at my mom's.

I've fallen down stairs so many times. One time i tumbled and somehow by trying to catch myself I ended up doing a cartwheel.

Well, you could jump down the last two if you're going to land on the ground or a break in the case.

I always skip up and down 2 at a time, doing one by ones well to slow:)

I have short legs so I can only do one step at a time, but I can be pretty quick on them :p

2 steps at a time.

My Dad like crawls up the stairs on his hands, it's actually scary when it's 3am and he just APPEARS.

I'm so slow, I'm all petite so I take one step at a time and tall people stride passed me taking two - even three - steps at a time whilst I'm going as fast as my little legs will let me :(

I've fallen up stairs before. I was running up and slipped and made it to the top on my ass. My advance comp teacher was there watched the whole thing. I was the topic of descution the next day :D

It's stressful at work, our stock room is like 60 stairs upstairs and all our PC stuff is up there so I tend to go up and down them on average 15-20 times a day D= my little legs can't take it!!

Hire a giant to carry you. He'll be up those steps in 3 strides

Unbeatable Banzuke?

I usually skip stairs going up and down.

I did this, except I wound up catching myself with my face :greenie:

Ok, I lied I counted the steps at work, there's like 25..but still that's 50 there and back and it was so hot today -.-

Usually one at a time, but if I feel like challenging myself, I can almost make 4.

At the library, I saw a rather overweight woman emerge from the elevator and thought to myself 'man, stairs are so liberating'.

I had similar thoughts when going to lunch with a friend who is substantially pudgier than she was a year ago who not-too-subtly pleaded for us to not take the stairs.
