Since the contestants for Miss Universe from the USA have a hard time staying upright when [wearing dresses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/la-robe-ketchup), perhaps it's time for the organizers to consider the health and welfare of the contestants by providing them with [fashion helmets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-ventete-ah1).

The falling down trick didn't work again this year, as Miss USA was beaten by a girl who was kidnapped.
