Awesome, that's when I did mine. :) I couldn't view the vid... what was it? And yes, I'd do it! ;D lol.
Everyone's dreams sit aloft a rungless ladder. Some ladders are higher than others. Some are so tall they reach high above the clouds - but everyone can see their dream. Most people see that their ladder has no rungs and although they may talk about climbing it one day, seeing no way to get there, they eventually give up and settle for what lies beneath it.
      The brave however, the wise, the imaginative and the strong of will seek out their missing rungs. They learn all they can about the ladder, they surround themselves with friends and family who would also find the rungs, and failing all else they craft the steps themselves with their own two hands from nothing. Sometimes a rung breaks and the person falls. Some of these people will fall too hard and lose the strength to climb again - Yet they feel comfort in knowing they tried. They became better for it. And they experienced things and witnessed sights upon the climb that those who sat forever beneath it will never know.
      Then there are the special few who find new steps, or fix and climb again the ones that failed. Who eventually, through sheer tenacity and courage come to reach the final rung - Only they will have their dreams fulfilled. The extraordinary then build new ladders. These are the strongest people of all.

:haha: sure would but proberly wouldt make much difference *googles glide ratio of a squirrel suit* Wow maximum of 2:1. Thats poor. I think a hang glider has about 7:1, an old bad glider 14:1 a normal glider 23:1 and a good one as high as 60:1..but still looks awesome.

The workload on your brain can get so high it stops working annd you think of...nothing. You become a passenger..lights are on nobody is home..I would guess if things went wrong you would be like that.
