Hello,
Would it be correct to say: "She fell out of bed and landed on top of me"? Provided that I was sleeping on the floor.

I know "fall" can be used, but I didn't want to use it twice. I realize "land" is usually followed by "on", but "She fell out of bed and landed on me" ... Hmm... I am not sure, but it should be okay.

Less thinking and more action! Write: She fell out of bed and landed on top of me. It's a perfectly good sentence. Trust us.

I can't write, Jim. Yeah, "on top of" is much sweeter in this context. Emotion: big smile
