Ice and Rubber

Why is it when you are small you can fall to the ground with little injury?

Yeah, as a kid you might cry about it, but in terms of actual injury, you're fine.

I guess kids are closer to the ground.

As an adult, if you fall on the ice, you get more scrapes and bruises. Your back aches for four days and you've thrown out your shoulder.

As you get even older, the probability of breaking something becomes even higher.

As we age, we go from rubber to glass.
