I haven't, but recently my boyfriend's daughter did. She had to call 911 and went to the ER. She fractured her back and is now doing physical therapy. She also bruised her face and head when she hit something nearby the bed.
Yes! I had a period of time I would. I don't like anything up next to me while
sleeping and I tend to lay right on the edge of the bed. DH is a bed roamer while
sleeping and would venture over and I guess I would try to roll away and - boop, wake up on
the floor. We began the separate bedrooms at that point and we both do sleep much
better and I don't have to fall asleep with ballgames blaring away in the room.

I fell off my top bunk as a kid. Surprised that only injury I had was a bruised leg.
As an adult, I got the brilliant idea to put silk sheets on my bed. To make things even worse, I donned a silk sleeping shirt. OMG, it was like being on a Slip N Slide.

I used to have that sensation and would wake up
Immediately.
All of my sleep related issues seemed to resolve themselves as soon as I stopped working.

I did this same things with satin sheets. After just a few days, they went to the donation box.As an adult, I got the brilliant idea to put silk sheets on my bed. To make things even worse, I donned a silk sleeping shirt. OMG, it was like being on a Slip N Slide.

Many, many times. Probably not in the last 15 years, thank goodness. DH couldn't get over how often I fell out of bed.
When I fell out, I'd lay on the floor and go right back to sleep. Only if I got cold would I climb back into bed.

A few weeks after having a hip replacement, I fell out of bed. Fortunately, didn't do any damage but it did shake me up a little bit. I know I'd been sleeping too close to the edge of the bed in order to get in and out easily after the op. I soon bought a bed rail!!

No never fell out of bed... but I tell you the most painful experience for me was about 30 years ago, I was staying at a friends house.. and sleeping in a single bed which was against the wall in the bedroom.
During the night, while sound asleep I sceamed loudly.. and believe me I'm not a screamer.. but my knee had brushed against the wall, which someone had painted using a textured masonry paint on..... ooooh god the pain..... it almost ripped the skin right off my leg...
the paint on the wall looked like this...on the left

Within the last couple of years I did once. Sound asleep must have shifted a little too far. Scared my wife, but other than being slightly banged up from hitting the floor and being annoyed at being woken up, I was fine. I remember once being 4 or 5 and falling out of bed getting the wind knocked out of me, but that's it.

I've never fallen out of bed, even when married and had "my side", but my wife did roll off "her side". She finally backed up 2 chairs against "her side." Now that I live alone, I sleep in the middle of the bed, so it would be almost impossible to fall off. When I have to get up in the night, I make sure my thoughts are clear and no dizziness before I start walking, and there are pieces of furniture I hold onto along the way, even if I don't think I need to.
