The tldr;

someone face-planted on a gravel driveway.
someone else tripped on a pavement and cut her arm
someone else fell, broke her wrist and cut her face.
someone else broke her phone and grazed her knee
someone else’s hem got caught in the teeth of an escalator and it pulled the trousers down to her thighs.

These are only examples, there are many more videos on social media of people tripping and been left battered and bruised.

Do you prefer to not get injured? Do not buy the Zara death pants.

Do you enjoy seeing people get hurt, search your favourite video platform for 'zara death pants'.

I don't think I could have kept a straight face if the escalator one happened in front of me.

I'm laughing just thinking about it.
