Not doing that again…………….ever

  • Belly35
    What is something you have done or attempted to do that you will never ever do again?

    I have done some crazy things in my life and have taken chances that could have been costly in every aspect of my life. But the one thing I will never do ever again…other that a triple salchow is jump on a trampoline. I hate, scared and will not let any of my kids or grandkids get on a trampoline. Back in the day locally they had trampoline parks where the trampoline where at ground level w/ padding 10 or 20 trampoline all line up. I was very good. One day however I was in school gym and the trampoline was up. I started to jump …nobody was around I did a double back flip in a pike position. I had done it before. I did not complete the rotation landing on my neck/head. I heard and felt every bone in my neck and spine crack, felt a burning/stinging in my neck and spine. Lying very still not attempting to move until the burning/sting feeling when away. I slowly turned my head left and then right, look at my feet and wiggled them, moved my arms. This process took what felt like 10 minute. I was OK or I thought I was. I rolled off the trampoline onto my feet and down I when no strength or balance. I was scared my nose started to bleed also and that did not help. I reach up to the trampoline frame and pulled myself up I was now standing but very dizzy, light headed. I was now able to walk some what but still very weak and lack of balance, still nobody in the gym or locker rooms.
    I walked into the shower with my cloths on and turn on the cold water. Coach came in and ask what was wrong I told him. He dragged me out of the shower on to the floor and called the EMS guys. There was a time factor that I don’t remember. I when to the hospital, released the next day but for two weeks it was like I was hit by a truck and my balance was off and my vision was blurred at times.

    Never again will I get on a trampoline…ever

    Sage, I guess I don't know you well enough from your posts, but why do you always have to be such a prick?

    Will never do $1 shots of Cruzen Rum ever again. Can't believe I even made it back to the cruise ship. I still cringe at the taste of that disgusting shit.

    +1 on the MD 20/20. Last time I drank it, I chugged one of those big bottles in one go and ended up shitting myself like a boss.

    As for the topic at hand, I am not sure if there is anything that I have done that I would NEVER do again.

    Went out to this club downtown. Got pretty wasted. Hoped in my car and tried to drive out of the garage (in the building that holds Mynt Ultra Lounge or whatever in Cbus)...BARELY backed out of the space, opened the door and puked right on the ground in the parking lot. I then managed to drive out of the garage, merge onto 670 W. I knew I had to puke again, so I pulled over on the side of the highway (right where 4th and 670 split I believe...under the overpass down by High Street and Goodale park) and puked on the highway.

    My drunk friend had to drive us back to her place all the way in Galloway. I slept crouched near her toilet in the bathroom. Got up the next morning at 7am, drove home to shower and then went to work that day. I didn't hit me until about two days later that that was probably the stupidest thing I have ever done. I coulda got into an accident and hurt myself or someone else.

    Thunderbird .........you die the next day only to wake up to die again
  • Sage
    And Earnest, I'm a prick because I'm shallow and find mid-grade satisfaction out of being a prick on an internet forum. Much more fun than passing out cyber hand jobs to people I don't know, yadig, yadig?

    I will never cross a street in between parked cars without knowing for sure no one is coming! ( I did look but didn't see anyone coming, cars were blocking my view). I left a store once and took off running across the street and got hit by a Dodge Ram. My friend seen the truck and tried to grab me but couldn't it was all bad. The last thing I remembered was getting almost to the the double yellow looking back and seeing this truck about to blast me going 35. I said to myself oh shit I'm going to get hit and jumped in the air trying to hurdle the truck. Hoping this would lessen the impact and keep it from running straight over me. The truck caught my lower legs and threw my in the air about ten feet high or so. I landed on the truck bounced of it and then hit the pavement bouncing up three more feet the witness reports said. I woke in an ambulance all strapped down with neck braces on and the whole nine. I went in and out of consciousness a few times on the way to hospital. The EMT's were concerned because they would tell me their name and i would not remember when I woke back up. They finally called a code Trauma on me rushing me in the E.R. doors. I knew what that meant and started to snap out of it telling myself I was alright. They told me not to move but I started wiggling my toes and making sure my hands and arms worked. I lost a chunk of my ear and it was a big joke because that was when Tyson bit off Holyfields ear. Needless to say other than quite a few stitches and a very bad headache I was o.k. I did feel a lot pain the next few day but was glad to be alive!
