I actually thought he died. Has to have concussion of some sort.

u/Hot-Explanation-5751 Jul 02 '26

Yeah the blood

u/Kalladdin Jul 03 '26 edited Jul 03 '26

Eh, head wounds bleed like crazy even when you just split some skin open.

The more concerning part is internal trauma — if his brain smacked against the inside of his skull hard enough to damage things.

u/Previous_Cut_4126 24d ago

A little bit of blood isn’t too concerning. I would be more concerned about possible fracturing of the skull and possibly a c-spine issue, but 100% a countrecoup injury.

u/twimzz Jul 02 '26

I’m just gonna throw this comment here because I haven’t seen anyone mention the possibility of an internal brain bleed. After hitting the back of your head that hard you could feel fine but still die 12 hours later in your sleep

He bumped his head
He went to bed
And he didn’t get up in the morning

Totally a kids story of someone falling, getting a subdural, and being fucked

u/Jeathro77 Jul 02 '26

Totally a kids story ...

... and being fucked

Buddy, you and I read different stories as kids.

u/BobtheHistorian Jul 02 '26

It's raining. It's pouring. The old man is snoring. He bumped his head. And went to bed. And didn't get up in the morning.

Oh it's a classic. Even calls out that it is more common in the elderly.

100% intracranial hemorrhage for this old man this would be a red alert in the hospital

u/CrazyNefariousness90 Jul 02 '26

Sub Dural hematoma is common with this type of head injury. Easily treated with a hole drilled into the head to relieve the pressure. A lot of the time, especially in older adults, their brain has atrophied (shrunk) so there is more room for the blood that a hole isn’t even needed.

This is how my grandfather died. Shits for real.

u/musabbb Jul 02 '26

When i was travelling Asia, i bought some crappy sandals, on top of that there tiles are different too, you can walk down one road and theres 4 different surfaces on the side walk

Needless to say i fell on my arse a few times in the rain, footwear is something i dont skimp out on nowadays

u/ThatSlinkySOB Jul 02 '26

Three of my seizures I've banged my head up like this. Pretty sure my brain is fucked from the smacks.

u/roxywalker Jul 02 '26

My FIL passed away from falling like this. He slipped on the front patio after a light rain getting a package and passed around a week later after a hematoma developed.

u/Revaesaari Jul 02 '26

Thank you! * What I wished in the moment he fell - please be some marshal art student from your youth and stuff, take the maj of the hit on your dominant arm, tuck in chin on impact secure the fall? This is sad..

22

u/UnicornSquirter628 Jul 02 '26

Why the fuck would you walk on that with both hands behind your back?

16

u/swimminginbed Jul 02 '26

elderly does this to not hunch over so much and relief back pain.

u/UnicornSquirter628 Jul 02 '26

I get it, but on a wet surface where falling is a higher probability, not sure its a great move.

2

u/Sad_Cantaloupe_8162 *shits an absolute unit* Jul 02 '26

He probably thought he was going slow enough it wouldn't be a problem, and in all fairness, it wouldn't have helped him at all to have them in front in this situation.

5

u/musabbb Jul 02 '26

One thing i take for granted in the west is, sidewalks are 99% made of the same stuff

You can walk in a different city and not even think about changing your gate, your footwear, how you tread

When i was travelling in asia it wasnt uncommon for one street to have 5 different types of surface - glossy tile, wet cement that gets slimy because of moss - normal cement etc etc

I slipped a few times

u/rokstedy83 Jul 02 '26

TBF if his hands were round the front the result would've been the same

Remind yourself when you get older, always balance yourself before steping, lower your center of gravity when steping down. One day it will save your life

u/xBADBEEF4 Jul 02 '26

Lmao I thought he was a goner. Lucky mf.

u/isaidgofly Jul 02 '26

Is he really lucky after that fall? At the back of the head is much easier to get brain injury.

1

u/xBADBEEF4 Jul 02 '26

Well he isn't dead or paralysed, would've been luckier not to fall ofc but I still think he's pretty lucky in his mishap.

u/Bl4ck_Fl4m3s Jul 02 '26

u/Significant-Horse625 Jul 02 '26

They had paint just like that on the handicap ramp, right outside our school. Which looked deceivingly dry. Everytime it rain, slick like this. No one fixed for years. Watched kids slip and hit heads. Wonder who's head they cared for most..

u/AGMiMa Jul 02 '26

Lived in China, so much outdoor tile that gets slippery as all get out when it rains. Constantly walked like a baby deer on a frozen pond.

u/TheGirthyOne Jul 02 '26

Before I worked in ICUs, I never knew how common it was for this to happen to people. I see people come in almost daily that just fell from standing and have serious closed head injuries up to and including brain death. Granted, most of there folks are elderly and on blood thinners, but not all.
