A Stunt Not Intended for Humans
I have always been a person who loves to do a little bit of everything. I love to skate, sing, dance, act a fool, and basically anything there is to do in the little town that I grew up in. But there is one thing that I just can't do... bungee jump. It just seems like a sport you should do only if you are ready to die! But for some strange reason my friends are just hung up on the idea of trying to convince me to go do this crazy stunt when they have failed to do the stunt themselves. I feel if God wanted us to jump off of a bridge on a single piece of rope and not hit the ground and die... he wouldn't have created gravity! I probably wouldn't be so afraid to do it if I hadn't seen a video of this man who jumped off the edge of a cliff and his face was introduced to the ground because his rope was just a little bit to long. Or if I hadn't seen a video of another man who was introduced to the same ground because his rope BROKE! I think the only way I could ever do it is if I was knocked out cold and they pushed me over the edge. And then again, if they pushed me over the edge, it might just be time for me to find some new friends! I can't honestly say that I would never do it because maybe one day I just might get the guts to actually do it. Well I guess we'll just have to wait and see what the future has in store.
