I can just say ouch. Having had my own share of failed belly flops etc. I unfortunately did not grow out of it.. ๐Ÿ˜‚ I was doing a backflip into the pool even in the beginning of this year. I'm 43, perhaps it's time to stop before I injure myself. On Saturday I did handstands on the beach with a friend fearing for my face if my arms give out ๐Ÿค”๐Ÿ™„ but do we learn? I dove into a pool when I was 18 and nearly broke my neck. Had a soft neckbrace for 6 weeks. And yet I still do stupid things. Glad you survived your great moment. I enjoyed reading it and it brought back the memories

Yep, ouch covers it pretty well. Still, time has a way of diminishing pain, emotional or physical, and 40 years later I find myself looking for more dumb things to do. Itโ€™s just the way of it.

Seems like youโ€™ve had, (are having), your fair share of moments also.

Thanks for commenting.
