Yes, it is. When people trip on a step while going up, that is called 'falling up'.
People often misjudge the amount of steps in a staircase. Since most don't look down, they trip over their feet.
Agreed, it *is* possible to fall while going up the stairs...I just want to clarify the terminology :)
Unless it's a part of speech that i never learned, I have never used the term "falling up".
Whenever I(or anyone else that I have ever known, for that matter) have tripped or fallen while going uphill or upstairs, I've always only ever heard the term:
"I fell down going up(the stairs/hill, etc)"
or "I fell going up", or something to that extent
I have *never* heard anyone use the term "falling up" or the phrase "I fell up" or "I fell up the stairs"
(but again, that might be just me )
In this light, i believe "falling" is the act of succumbing to the force of Gravity, which in almost all cases means "falling down"(not "falling up", which would be floating).
i have fallen up stairs many times so yes you can fall up stairs
