Well, in a case that an Elf WOULD fall off a bridge with a Hobbit or Dwarf {seeing they should have pretty good balance}, I think the Elf would hit first, landing feet first, and not exactly falling on the ground until the Dwarf fell on him from above.
As the two on the ground are arguing at who pushed who first, the clever Hobbit is above on a huge tree root sticking out from the cliff laughing hysterically at the thought that he was the only one smart enough to realize there were 3 ways to not have hit the ground...
1. Grabbing the rope hanging from the bridge which fell from the Elf as he and the Dwarf were fighting on the bridge and mysteriuosly caught onto a nail sticking out from the bridge
2. Realize before you fell completely that you were losing your balance and breaking through the wooden sides of the bridge and grab onto something to pull yourself back up
3. As the Hobbit did, grab a hold of the huge tree root sticking out of the cliff and pull yourself back up
In a case where all of these would be true, there would be a way to where each one of them could be saved from the horrid disaster awaiting them at the bottom.
Whoa, I have got way too much time on my hands to be sitting around figuring up stuff like this. I'm gonna go eat dinner.
