I was riding with my bicycle. One of the elastic straps sticks out a little from my bag, gets caught somewhere, I hear a loud click, then see it spin in the air and finally land on the other side of the road.

I walked over a cliff then I looked down and fell.

Not really, but it does feel like that if you inadvertently step off something higher than you thought you were.

If you don’t catch yourself on time and end up rolling ankle or worse, you might as well have fallen off a cliff.

I’ve trapped my fingers in a car door because I had my hand on the roof, leaned over to close the door with my other hand and didn’t move the other hand in time.

Speaking of bicycles, as a teenager I was riding my bike through the neighborhood & then started looking at all the pretty clouds up in the sky that day. Then as I lowered my line of sight back to the road I saw the parked car I was riding directly into and slammed right into it. Not sure if anyone witnessed the event but it must have looked cartoonish, or at least something straight out of Jackass.

Luckily got out of that with just a few scrapes and bruises, and a lesson to always watch the road.

This brought back memories of teenage me and my idiot friends doing our own jackass stunts… we mostly jumped through a hedge trying to make it look like we just hurt our balls. We were not very creative.

One thing we did was tried to hurdle all of the hedges along the street. I tried to film it once, but it was dark and trying to ride a bike or a skateboard along the pavement (so there was - in theory - less camera movement) while my friends were doing it wasn’t that easy.

As a kid, I was at a snow park, getting towed up a hill in an inner tube. The tube was attached to a cyclical line with spaced out hooks, towing all the tubes to the top of the hill. But mine got unhooked when I was almost at the top and the tube flipped into its side, rolling sideways down the hill. I was still inside, holding into the handles, tumbling end over end but rotating too fast to fall out. The employees looked nervous when I reached the bottom of the hill, no doubt worried that I was injured and my parents would sue. But I just got up and went to the back of the line to go back up to the top.

Holy shit I did the same thing. I took 2 hooks to the face before I figured to duck. Lucky, the hooks were face proof so I basically just got punched in the face. I got to the bottom, dusted my self off, and tried to get back in line before people rushed me to see if I was ok.

I watched as a friend screwing around in her car in a parking lot ran over her own foot.
