The challenge of how to make the Old Man fall on his bum in Untitled Goose Game is a strange one, and not just because it has the word 'bum' in it – as some players will instantly figure it out, while others will be left frustratingly repeating the same mistakes over and over again while the codger resolutely fails to drop on his behind. At first glance the solution to this seating shenanigan looks obvious, as you have a clear window to grasp the stool while the Old Man prepares to sit, but actually completing this classic comedy move needs the right technique to prevent the Old Man detecting you and thwarting your carefully crafted yet horrible plan.

If you're wondering how exactly you make the Old Man fall on his bum in Untitled Goose Game, then read on as we've got the solution to the problem right here, and if there's anything else you're struggling to tick off your To Do lists then our complete Untitled Goose Game walkthrough can show you the way to proceed for success.

The trick to make the Old Man fall on his bum in Untitled Goose Game is to dispense with any subtlety, and just 100% commit to the prank. Wait until the Old Man picks up his harmonica then gets ready to settle down on his stool. Get behind him, and as he prepares to sit you need to grab that stool and quickly pull it away as far as possible! Ironically this makes less sound than a sneaky movement, and as long as you move the stool far enough away that the Old Man won't hit it as he falls, he'll drop like a sack of spuds and you can tick this task off your To Do list for the pub. HONK HONK!
