Yes the arm thing UGH but at the same time, it amazes me that an arm would break from that kind of fall, a thin kid, not so much height, but maybe the angle? is what did it.
I would think the shoulder would displace first.
I have fallen down so many times in my life (not drunk TYVM) and never broken anything. Sprained some ankles beyond recognition and damaged my knee cartilage once (took a year to figure that one out), but never a broken bone. Must have been all the calcium I took as a kid or something.
