    If they didn't bounce off the mountain they would have hit it around 1500ft down in about 12 seconds. That's around 120mph if they were flailing arms/legs out OR 200mph head/feet down & arms tucked in.

    So the trick is to keep your cool while falling.
    Keep your head down and feet up and arms tucked in, calmly, ... so the final moment is as quick as possible.

    that would in fact make it faster. Feet first for a chance at an open casket, head first otherwise.

    The OM is UP!!!!!!

    The OM has been UP, and has the driver doing squats at 0330 in the morning.

    This is just feline domination.

    I am criminally unmotivated today.

    Still in MA.

    The alarm was set for 0230, but I kept hitting the snooze button until it finally said, "All right, ## too, then."

    Now 0730, and I'm having a cup of yesterday's thermos coffee, so I can generate the motivation to walk my Big Fat Fatness across the parking lot to get a fresh, HOT cuppa joe.

    Taking this load to KNEE-BRASKA, so full driving day today and tomorrow.

    Hopefully there will be a cute girl at the cash register.....

    Lol. What do you think of when your falling? Take in the view? Or is it a bunch of bounces. Which would suck.
