Well, I suppose it is possible not to reach out with your arms, but I would suspect something else (like ribs you mentioned) to break than just the head on a 20-30 foot fall.
I’m no expert, just guessing or trying to think logical.

“...to break than just the head on a 20-30 foot fall.”
I guess I must have missed something along the way though as ALL I have read/heard was he hit his head on the headboard one story and the other story was he got hit over the head with a baseball bat. When did a 20-30 ft fall come into the picture?
