Oh, and my arm still hurts quite badly after I stumbled fell last night. I actually passed out from the pain.
Sorry to hear that.
Was alcohol or your scooter involved, or maybe both?

Oh, and my arm still hurts quite badly after I stumbled fell last night. I actually passed out from the pain. A rather unpleasant experience. Not recommended. At all.
The question is; did you spill your pitcher of beer during this unpleasant experience?

No and no. I was quite sober and on foot. And really, how on earth should I know that sandals are not the optimal footwear in rough terrain??

Beer does not belong in a pitcher and Velveeta is not cheese.

If there is no warning label on them, I smell a lawsuit.

Well, if you ask the myriad of German tourists in the city center of Florence, all sporting brown Birkenstock and white socks... well then... uhm...

Nah, we're not that tall. Most people here are smaller than me and I'm only 194cm (about 2 yards 1 hand 1/2.6" in Americanese).
horses and ponies are measured in " hands ":

The red line is where the measurement would be taken, about in the middle of the withers, at their highest point.

Since a hand is equal to four inches, you can calculate your horse's height in inches by this formula:

4 x WH + FH = Inches high

Where WH stands for the horse's whole hands, and FH stands for any fraction of the horse's height left over.

For example, a 15.2HH horse's height could be calculated as follows :

4 X WH + FH = Inches high =
4 X 15 + 2 = 62 Inches high
