My mother-in-law is getting old. She's also getting clumsy. Her knee is damaged because she slipped on some stairs, her elbow when she slipped on a shiny floor, etc.
Clumsy Bags are a new range of underwear, for people who fall... the elderly, the infirm, the young, and the unco-ordinated.
Worn
under the clothes, they contain a range of sensors, to determine whether a disaster is about to occur. In the event you slip and fall they inflate in milliseconds, just like a car's airbags, preventing bruised knees, damaged coccyxes and head knocks.
Not cheap, but better than a stay in hospital.
PS. Not to be worn if you are trampolining.

Sensors solve everything. Personal airbags doubly so. Bun. |

Finally, a practical solution on these pages. Kudos from the AARP generation. |

These have the added benefit that if the wearer jumps when startled, they'll inflate just like a pufferfish. |

Oh what a sight to see! Run around the old age home kicking everyone and they turn into balloons boobling on the grass. What a visual! (Don't tell Robin Willams or he'll use it in a movie) |

Wouldn't these have a tendency to make the wearer roll over and smash their faces on the ground? |
|
| |
That would be a separate idea. |
