Every year we used to have bridge day. On this one day, the county (or whoever) would permit bungee jumping off the New River Gorge Bridge. My friends and I had lined up once we were old enough. The first guy to go off just fell and hit the rocks...they had forgotten to connect the cord to the bridge. I haven't had any desire since.

Wonder how many times something happens? There is a reason they call it an extreme sport.

Moral to this story is nobody is more interested in you welfare than...YOU! Always check things yourself...be it bungee cords or the cinch on a rental horse or.........

Natural selection at it's finest. What a waste of a donor's card. IMHO if you want to apply for a driver's licence you should have to fill out a donor's card. We seniors need your gear. No offence to the latter day saints types.

Kipster has got soo it right.
Check your own parachute, saddle, tires, wires... and your horse's shoes, for that matter.... and don't do it if you don't know enough to check your own equipment... no matter who says different. Lizzy
