I learned to ride a unicycle.

I’ve wanted to do this but I’m afraid at my age I’ll be seriously injured trying.

I learned to ride when I was 17. It took me like 2 months to learn to ride.

I just turned 42 today. If I didn't already know how to mount and ride a unicycle already, I'd probably be like F that as well.

If you fall on an unicycle you land on your feet

I fear you may overestimate my physical prowess.

Usually yes, but it partly depends on how big the tire is and how tall the unicycle is..

I learned on a 24 inch tire with 6 inch pedal cranks, not stupid tall. I wasn't going for the circus, I just wanted to learn to ride.

My experience says no to this. Maybe usually, but I fell on my ass a few too many times and gave up trying to learn the rest.
