Taking a Tumble

Stage fright is real, and for this Reddit user, it was literally painful. During a school event, they were performing in front of a crowd when disaster struck. They took one wrong step and fell—not just off the stage but directly onto the judges’ table. Gasps, silence, then scattered laughter followed.

The embarrassment was overwhelming. They had to get back up, finish the performance, and pretend nothing happened. But the memory? That’s forever. Falling in front of a crowd is one of the oldest fears in the book—and unfortunately, this user got to live it in full color. At least now, it’s a story worth sharing.
