Once i was in...i think about 4th grade, not sure, but i was in a playground, dont remember the details, ran straight into a pole that was holding up a swingset. I was on the ground for about a minute, half knocked out. Everybody started crowding around me, but everybody was all simpathetic so it wasn't really embarassing...also another time, about a week ago, i sit and hit the very edge of my chair so the chair goes flying and I slam on the ground. I found it funny, but others would be embarassed in the situation.

I had this down to an art in 5-6 grade. There was a big pole, about 8 inches in diameter, about 15 feet in front of the swing. I got good at jumping out of the swing at a low trajectory as a boost of speed, and running into the pole. I got so good at ricocheting off the pole that it didn't hurt. It did knock me to the ground, but it was that soft, composite rubber stuff.
