Could falling on your knees on cement cause brain damage?

Question

Like the force of falling down a very steep driveway on to your knees then hands...the fall being caused by falling from a fast pace walk then tripping

Answer 1

No way, no. Only if you fell from a high building, then a fracture in the base of the skull may occur. But the way you mentioned, not a chance.

And for the one who said the only way to get brain damage is by getting a hit in the head, this is not true.  Incidence of head injury in feet first landings: 8.3% to 60%. Ring fracture of the base of the skull- encircling the hole through which the spinal cord passes downwards (foramen magnum) can be caused by a fall onto the feet or onto the top of the head.

Answer 2

no! the only way to get brain damage is trama to the head, or lack of blood flow to the brain!

Answer 3

It might destroy a few brain cells and grind away at a few joints but i dont think that you could get brain damage from that. I certainly havent.
