Thanks [MENTION=44184]no motor?[/MENTION], [MENTION=458309]SylvainG[/MENTION], and [MENTION=152773]noglider[/MENTION], very good videos. I suppose the principles are the same when you're falling from 15+ mph and a squat, just, y'know, faster.
My last fall was on foot as I was rushing to catch the bus, and I went down straight forward. Fortunately this time I didn't sprain my right forearm, but I did bend the ribs on my left side; nearly a month later and they're still a bit sore. I think I'm going to try to join a gym, both to strengthen my core and learn falling, if I can afford the $$$.
PARKOUR!
