That depends on the friction, or grip, between your feet and the surface you are standing on. Its a battle between gravity and friction. If you are in bare feet on ice, mud, or wet grass or clay, gravity wins and you take a tumble. If you are wearing hiking boots on rock, stone, or any surface with a little friction, friction wins.
