Did you ever run off a cliff and hang there in the air.

and then either read a book about gravity and fell, or held up a sign that says "HELP!" and then fallen?

It is not the fall that gets you, it is the sudden stop.

1. I loved Wile E. Coyote and Roadrunner when I was a kid

2. It has an uncanny way of occurring near the

Arizona Utah border in Monument Valley whenever I get hungry for freshly killed roadrunner.

weird.
:shrug:

7. Yes, and someone needs to talk to their highway department...

about all the bridges that are out and the roads that go straight off cliffs and stuff. But I bet it is hard with a stupid coyote cutting holes in everything and blowing stuff up. I think they should sue ACME.

[Lucky Luciano]

10. Hey - you

I'm talking to you.
Are you calling me a stupid coyote?

Wait a minute...hmmm....suing ACME sounds like a good idea....taht way I can buy food rather than chase it!

hmmmmmm

3. Almost ran off a cliff

Luckily the Ghia hung on, 2 tires on gravel (treacherous) and 2 on the road. I lookked and thought if I go over I hope I land in that big tree about a 100 ft down. Needlessly to say, I was not saying the act of contritrition, like the good nuns taught me said say under dire straits. I was cussing up a storm and concentrating on what to do if I got proper tration.

5. Well I would have messed myself.

If I had been in your situation.

[burrowowl]

15. I did put a butterfly

in my panties when I was strolling in the Sandias (same as cliff incident) and saw a bear about 50 yards away. I licked my finder to feel the wind, I was good so I huddled behind a rotting log to see which way the bear would go. It took the short cut so I took the long cut. And removed my panties before sitting in the car.

4. I ran off an olympic dive in Carsbad, NM....

I swear to God I stopped in mid-air, If I had a sign, I would have held it up. I proceeded to fall forever in a cannonball.

I had never done it before, and did it because a younger cousin did it.... :crazy:

[texas1928]

8. We used to do that, and see who could get the farthest out.

that was such great fun.

[kick-ass-bob]

6. Those damned ACME products never work.

:grr:

[texas1928]

9. Yes the coyote should have brought a civil suit against ACME

and taken the company.

11. locking

DU members are not qualified to prove or disprove the theory of gravity. Please consult a physicist.

Sorry- I just had my first thread locked... and am embarrassed.

[texas1928]

13. Shame on you.

You must go buy 10 bags of Swedish Fish now.

[expatriot]

20. Until a few months ago I was actually a anti-Lounge prude....

...I didn't fully appreciate the social interaction value of DU... if you looked back at some of my posts just a matter of months ago I railed against silly threads and the such. I have come full circle, having posted some silly threads myself!

[sundog]

I just some how knew.

[El Fuego]

16. As long as you don't look down you'll be fine.

It's one of those life lesson metaphors you get from watching cartoons.

[Left Is Write]

17. Yes. Yes, I have.

18. I have been piloting a plane, had a problem, went into a spin,

and just before it hit the ground, it ran out of gas. Saved.
