Old People Cannot Fall

According to statistics, the death rate among old people is the highest by falling. But, for old persons, falling is mostly at home, seldom at outside. It is because that when old people go out, they are so careful, but at home, as everything is so familiar to him, he will be careless and the chance of falling increase.
We cannot confine the fault of falling to be the carelessness of old people. It is due to their shrinkage of muscle without which they cannot keep their body erect. The second they lose the power of balance, so they fall.
After falling, you have to lie on bed for recovering. But the day you feel you have recovered, you have already lost your muscle. You will be weak to walk or even you cannot walk without assistance from other people. It is very sad, but it is the reality of old people.
Falling of old people is also the rule of nature to make old people die earlier. As old persons live a very peaceful life, eating little, moving little, just like a turtle. Without accident, they can live very long and too old aged people, if many, will be a heavy burden to the society.
