Germany

One day Cassidy was talking to us,  it must have been something about school.  Whatever she was telling us about had to with  Germany. All of a sudden Alec would fall down to the floor and then get back up in his chair, and then he would drop to the floor again.  We said , Alec what are you doing?  And he said so matter of fact that,
"Germany makes me fall down".
It was hysterical, everytime  Cassidy said Germany,  Alec would fall down. We have no idea why, and this was the first we heard of this.  From then on every time someone said Germany,  Alec would just drop to the floor. It then turned into Cassidy and Alec giving each of us a state or country and when it was said we had to fall down. This was fun at first but  became inconvenient and tiring, all of this falling down (no matter what we were doing we had to fall down).   We didn't want Alec to hurt himself with all this falling, so we modified the drop to the floor with a big lean to the side,  an almost fall.  Alec was so cute,  he would grip his little hands around the edge of the table and when we said Germany,  he would hold on and fall as far over as he could without falling.
 
I just heard someone say Germany on T.V. and I just fell over, which is why I share this story.
 Now whenever we hear someone say Germany, we fall (lean to the side).
Cassidy has done this at school.
Keith has done this at work .
I have done it in a meeting.
We fall over any time , anywhere whenever we hear or read Germany.
