Eli5 why grown ups do not fall down from the bed?

Question

I am wondering why small kids ( even a few years old) fall down from the bed while changing their position but bigger children /adults do not, no matter how much they move while sleeping?

Answer 1

One counter example doesn’t destroy the rule, but as an adult, I fell out of bed and degloved a finger. If you don’t know what that means, leave it alone and don’t Google it.
