A TikTok user has gone viral after sharing three unusual and out-there theories about why some people have never experienced a broken bone.

For those of us who are a bit clumsy or accident-prone, breaking a bone is pretty familiar territory. Kids, especially, seem to end up with casts now and then, thanks to their adventurous energy.

Whether it's playing a bit of soccer with friends or running wild during school P.E., accidents happen. At some point, many of us have had to deal with a break or sprain just from day-to-day activity.

Honestly, you don’t even need to be playing sports to end up with a broken bone. Sometimes just bumping into furniture or missing a step on the stairs can be enough to land you in a cast.

Still, there are folks out there who have managed to go through life without ever breaking anything. Most of us would chalk that up to pure luck.

But a TikTok creator who runs a page called Sara's Weird World believes it could be more than that. She’s shared three intriguing theories on why some people have avoided broken bones altogether.

Spiritual protection

When it comes to the first theory, Sara talks about the idea of spiritual protection. She said: "Apparently, there is a spiritual reason to why people have never broken a bone."

She then followed that up with a bold claim: "That's because they are protected by spiritual protection. Almost untouchable in a weird sense. Protected by the higher powers."

Good Karma

I’ve personally never broken a bone, so I’m kind of hoping this next theory turns out to be true — even if it does sound a bit far-fetched at first.

"The theory is that these types of people possess good karma, which they've earned by doing actions and kind deeds." Sara went on to explain. "This protects the individuals from coming to any harm."

And really, when you think about it, "harm" might not just mean physical injury. It could also point to emotional or spiritual protection too. Maybe this is about more than just avoiding trips to the ER?

Past life experiences

For the third and final theory, Sara taps into the concept of reincarnation. She suggests that those who had a rough time in their previous lives might get a bit of a break — no pun intended — in this one.

As she put it: "It is said that those people in this life who have never broken a bone may have experienced significant trauma in a past life. So, the theory suggests that they are being spared from having similar experiences in this life."

The comment section under her TikTok has been buzzing with reactions, with plenty of people chiming in to share what they think of the theories she brought up.

One viewer commented: "Or…hear me out… we just lazy and never leave our houses unless we have to."

Another added their own twist to the idea: "If someone never broke a bone. that mean its last reincarnation."
