Crazy, loveable college kids


This is a wonderful way to pass a sunny afternoon instead of doing homework. I love the reckless abandon of youth. Either I've taken too many hard falls or have just gotten old and stodgy, but I can't do this sort of thing anymore. Give me a nice soft lake to fall into, and I'm in. I can't do the land on the stump and bracken on the downhill landing possibility anymore. I appreciate that these folks can.

Are they swinging on the rope and then just jumping off onto the dirt? I don't think I ever was 'reckless' enough for that!

No, not jumping. Sorry if that wasn't clear. They were swinging way out over the falling ground and then back to where they started. It's more about the consequences of slipping off the rope.
