I recalled thinking when I was a camp nurse that on the few occasions we had to carry someone out of the woods it was always a big person. So my thought at the time was: why is it always the trees that fall over in the woods and never the bushes?

One time I was walking across camp at night when I came across one camper trying to carry a camper about twice their size who was out of it. Apparently the taller child had struck their head and the counselor sent them with a much smaller child to my office. They didn’t make it, luckily I happen upon them. The older child had a concussion so I took him to my favorite ER where you have to knock and wait for them to answer. Always the trees!
