The shocked silence is worse. I fell over (sober) in the middle of a busy central London restaurant a few months a go and no one said a word! I laughed but my friend was really embarrassed. He later said he didn't know what to do when my head when went in some one's beouf bourgienne!
I also fell over in my child's school playground and everyone acted all concerned, but I laughed. There seems to be a recurring theme here...
