There'd be a bunch of very confused suicide attempters.
Falling/crashing drunks actually give mild credence to this theory
I once fell off of a garage roof while hammered, and just sort of "bounced". Not a single bruise or even a scratch. Alcohol is antigravity fluid.
As a depressant it reduces or eliminates the tensing a sober person does before an incoming impact/injury. Funily enough that looseness causes less injuries.
No, I'm pretty sure that was real fall damage.
I do often hurt myself in my own confusion, but that usually feels more like a bump on the head or a stubbed toe.
