It has to do with brittle bones on the elderly. Their bones just can't support them anymore if they have bone loss and their hip will break and then they fall, of course. For many years, the fall was attributed to the broken hip when in actuality, the broken hip caused the fall.

Fall is one of the four temperate seasons.

They missed that one.
