On my head.

[General Rainbow Bacon]

Up and a little to the left.

[Linkrulezall]

Forward onto a nice set of tits. Preferably attached to someone who doesn't pepper spray me immediately afterwards.

[Kirby]

Into a pile of cotton, preferably. If that is unavailable, then sideways onto my shoulder. I would say backwards, but I'm pretty sure I would just smack my head on whatever surface lay waiting for gravity to just yank me down to it.

[Remilia Scarlet]

Onto a tatami mat.

I was always a glutton for this stuff in class.

[GreyGhost]

Gracefully, in slow motion.

[40oz]

Do a little DSOOF and keep on goin.

[mrthejoshmon]

Well preferably where nobody could see my fuckery in the realm of gravity.

That, and to fall vertically without even looking down like a boss.

[Aliotroph?]

If I have to fall I'd rather do it drunk so it hurts less. Falling is scary shit when my left retina is mostly detached.

[axdoomer]

I'd like to fall on a bed of cozy bread.

[Obsidian]

I prefer to fall from grace.

[Marnetmar]

Into Retog's big strong arms <3

[Waffenak]

I like to fall on my bed

[Avoozl]

Out of a plane without a parachute.

Thanks for the interesting responses everybody. I look forward to more discussion on this topic.

This.

And, DAMN YOU, ECCHI / HAREM COMEDY ANIME GENRE! WHY THIS SHIT NEVER HAPPENS IN REAL LIFE (TM)?

[Krispy]

Slow motion then fiery explosion.

Fight! Something on the dum na ema...

If I had to positively, ABSOLUTELY fall on something, let it be a caco bean bag chair.

[Phobus]

I'd be happiest falling into obscurity.

[ASD]

falling to a toxic pit MAP24 style.

[Kontra Kommando]

In a garbage truck off of the Empire State Building.

As quickly and with as little pain as possible towards whatever I'm falling in or to.

I borrowed a pair of Olympic grade Giant Slalom skis and was tearing up the same black diamond all day long. It was a blast but towards the end of the day I fell and went sliding down the hill on my back for a bit. That in itself was kinda fun in that I didn't get hurt at all; so I guess I prefer to fall on my back while downhill skiing.

[Jimothy]

I prefer to not fall at all. Though if I do, I'd like to have my fall damage disabled.

[William Blazkowicz]

Safely.

As a general rule of thumb, when falling backwards it's a good idea to look down so you don't smack your head on the floor.

I've also slipped forward running on ice and managed to roll over my shoulder with nothing more than a scrape on my wrist, although I would probably never be able to do that again if I tired.

In my experience, I've also noticed that as soon as you sense yourself slipping down the stairs, you have a better chance of recovering if you follow your momentum instead trying to change or resist it. For me, it kinda looks like running down the stairs while simultaneously squatting to take a shit. That's actually a horrible description of what it looks like, but it's the only one I can think of. If I'm not crazy, perhaps someone a little more graceful with words has some sort of an idea of what I'talking about and would be able to better explain it?
