He fell on his head.
That line kills me. The way John Baluk dies - what the heck is up with that? He falls off the top of his own spaceship because the weird door shut?
That whole scene cracks me up.

It is funny. :)
I don't know why he fell. Maybe the gravity was not the same as his own world and it made him lose his balance.
Sorry to bump such an old thread! I'm browsing my old posts and never realized you responded. Just wanted to say thanks for the suggestion. That was never something I considered but in retrospect it actually makes the most sense.
Remember how they jumped over the wall into Buckaroo's compound? Of course that would indicate that our gravity is lighter to them, but still, it doesn't discount that our gravity may behave different than their own.
That line though is still hilarious. It's delivered in such a deadpan style.

Don't apologize, That's just one of many goofy lines of dialogue
in this movie that are delivered dead pan.
I still love how they used "Why me?" several times from various
characters in this film and it worked every time.
I'm going to watch this again this weekend. I love it!
