Try this: have someone lay on their back, stretch a piece of thread
(ordinary sewing stuff, not upholstery or necklace thread) across the
bridge
of their nose pinning it to the floor with your thumbs and ask them to sit
up. Then, allow one inch of slack on either end and have them sit up.


I tried this with my wife. We couldn't find any thread, so I used kite
string.

We just returned from the emergency room. They said that my eye should open
back up in 3-5 days and the x-rays of her fist showed that it is just
sprained, not broken...

Just wanted to so thanks a helluva lot for your bright idea of an
experiment...
