CanuckInUSA 0 #4 July 28, 2006 Quoteyes, this should be moved. It'll be in a new category soon once a greenie sees this thread. Quotebut you forgot to have "bank account" as a choice. What about Femur? Why was Femur left off? Shit anything can happen in this sport from a slight bruise, bloody nose, to broken bones, to paralysis to death. Just don't #### up right?

DJL 232 #13 July 28, 2006 I voted groin. Since I started skydiving I just don't get out to chase girls anymore. So I'd say there are definitely some adverse effects in the groin area. The other day my sister said I need to get a girlfriend. I'm sorry, I just can't put on a straight face and talk to these fucking boring chicks I meet at bars. It seems like they all drive VW's and work in the consulting field. Honestly, WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG with these bitches. It's like they're all on fucking lithium and aaaaaaaAAAAAAHHHHHH.. Sorry, fuckin' teret's. FUCK!SHIT!DAMN!"I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Regurgitation is the controlled flow of stomach contents back into the oesophagus and mouth. Regurgitation is used by a number of species to feed their young. This is typically in circumstances where the young is at a fixed location and a parent must forage or hunt for food, especially under circumstances where the carriage of small prey would be subject to robbing by other predators or the whole prey is larger than can be carried to a den or nest. It is a normal and voluntary process unlike the complex vomiting reflex in response to toxins. It was bugging me...so I had to reply _________________________________________ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fcajump 153 #22 July 28, 2006 QuoteHello I just want to see, what's most skydivers got serious or minor injure in exit, freefall, during opening, collaspe canopy, or landing. Worst ankle twist I ever had happened when I was getting my TI rating. Oh... the jumps went fine, every landing was spot-on and gentle... Twisted the sh!t out of my left ankle when I missed the last step while carrying my cooler down the steps from my room at the hotel. "See folks, he can nail a drougeless triple back flip, drouge-track and open on time after having his goggles pull off during the exit, and he kills himself on those high-risk stairs."Always remember that some clouds are harder than others...

rehmwa 2 #23 July 28, 2006 I've seen more people hurt themselves dinking around on the ground on bad weather days than during actual skydives. Seriously. But the MAJOR injuries have been bad canopy control accidents. Other than that, Since 4-way, I've seen a few knees to the heads during hard training. I've seen a couple dislocated shoulders mainly due to people not paying attention to the climbout and launch. ... Driving is a one dimensional activity - a monkey can do it - being proud of your driving abilities is like being proud of being able to put on pants Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
