A member asked:

As a kid i was sleepwalking and fell downstairs to a concrete floor. i did not wake up at the bottom. why would such a fall not wake me?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Concussion: I'll bet it's because you hit your head. Hope the sleepwalking and other parasomnias are over; if not, barricade the stair tops at night.
