I can't believe we used to jump off the swings in midair. Those knees were fresh outta the box.
@MostlyHarmless I landed straight onto a bottle top, knee first, 7 stitches, never thought about it again for years.. and then..
@MostlyHarmless Still, even then we were on our last legs.
@MostlyHarmless @janerationx I would crumble into pieces if I did that now.

@fahrni I used to do it all the time! Amazing any of us made it out of childhood.

@MostlyHarmless

@janerationx @MostlyHarmless Same.

If you saw half the crap my brothers and I did you’d wonder how any one of the three of us made it to adulthood. 🤣

@MostlyHarmless

I broke both wrists during separate incidents doing that. And I’ve never regretted my childhood one bit

@MostlyHarmless yep, I flew out of the swing at the top of the arc leaving a chunk of the side of my shorts in the swing. Had to hold the seam closed and bicycle home to change. It was a blast!
@MostlyHarmless Yeah, I’m starting to think all that BMX freestyle we did in the 80’s was actually a call for help.. 😁
