Most often, because the vestibular system in your head, which controls balance and spatial awareness begins to wear down as you age.

A bit of it has to do with the square cubed law, which results in exponentially more stress on the muscles and limbs as you get bigger. It’s why monkey bars are super easy for children, but even stronger adults have to expend a bit of effort to get across.
