I'd rather have a broken arm than a broken neck or even a severe concussion, a little extreme but it could happen. Using our hands to break a fall is a protective reaction built into our brain, kinda like a reflex. So most of the time people will do it without thinking.
I totally understand that, and fortunately she was fine. And I understand the reaction thing, I see athletes do it all the time. I broke my arm as a kid trying to catch myself. I'm actually just pretty pissed that a fall like that happened to begin with. From the video I saw, it didn't even appear that there was an attempt made to catch her which is super unacceptable at this level of cheerleading. Or any level actually.
