RE: Macro: Lilac Bonnet / Gemeiner Rettich-Helmling
Third floor? You are crazy, my friend.
Of course, you were younger then, but I live on the second floor, which is a bit higher up than usual (ground floor is about 1.5 meters higher) and I would never jump down - maybe in winter, if a lot of snow was on the ground ;)
Now I can understand your wife, and I wouldn't let you go anywhere alone ;)
It sounds worse than it is, If you know how to land right with knees bent a bit so they dont take the brunt of the landing its OK, this was maybe 17 Years ago, I probably would not do it now, But i have done drops of that or higher before, not normally onto concrete of course so I knew if i lowered myself off he edge as far as I could and landed right it wouldn’t be a problem
But yeah i have never denied i am crazy
When we were young we also jumped from the balcony or from the wall beside our parent's house, which is a bit higher than the second floor, but never that high, apart from the diving tower in the swimming pool, which was 10 meters high ;)
It's good, that you don't deny, you are crazy, because you just said "I probably would not do it now" ;)
Well I should have said I would not do it now LOL, not sure how the probably slipped in there lOL
You think thats cray back when I was into Motocross around 20 Years old, after a few drinks, far to many drinks should I saw, i lived in an army barracks on the third floor and at the end of the corridor was a small balcony one night we built a little ram on the balcony and a couple rode there bikes off it, I decided i could do better Nd jumped off it on my motocross bike and apparently did a full flip before landing quite successfully and parking my Bike up
I am glad cellphone and video cameras along with social media weren’t round then to document it lOL
I am so glad, that you have become sensible and don't drink anymore ;)
To hear your stories, makes me think, what a boring youth I have had, although it was not that boring at all ;) lol
Lol 😂 ohh I am glad I have quit drinking and got sensible but hey nothing I did was to bad none of the things I did back then put me in hospital 🏥 😂
Good morning JJ,
right, you have had much luck.
When I look back at some things I have done when I was young, then I was very lucky too - nothing bad happened and I didn't hurt myself (too much) or others ;)
Some things have been so very stupid, but looking back, it was fun too 😊
Yes the good thing is with our positive attitudes when we look back we mostly remember the fun sides of things which is a good way to be
When talking with my wife over the weekend and I forget how it came up but i ending up saying if I went back to my youth there maybe be a couple of things I may do differently but mostly I would do it all again the same way as it all lead me to where I am now and I am happy with that
Right, if you had done only one thing a bit different, then you might not be where you are now ... I think, there's a story about a butterfly - the Butterfly Effect ;)
I have just got hit by the HF21/22 downvote thing
That's not funny and certainly not neccessary, and it hurts. Both accounts belong to the same person.
