OK so I've had my PJ's for over a week now and I've been doing really well with regards to walking, jogging & running. I finally managed to pluck up the courage to try the dreaded 2 footed jump and it really wasn't as scary as I thought it was going to be.....
Anyway, I've been jumping around in my garden (full safety gear on btw) and been getting slowly higher and higher, 1ft, 2ft, 3ft and finally 4ft of the ground. It's an awesome feeling being that high of the ground with just the PJ's, well with my confidence building I thought sod it and said to myself "I wonder if I could jump the fence into the neighbours garden"
Now try and picture, the fence is roughly 3 - 4 ft high in places, and she has all grass in the back garden. My slabbed peice of garden just narrowly crosses into the 3-4 ft section, so I get bouncing and it takes me a good 10 minutes to really get the courage up and adrenaline going to a significant point where I think LETS GO!!!!
So, it seems like slow motion as I approach the fence (slightly jogging) and I initiate the bounce with one foot onto the two foot jump to get the height. I go soaring in to the air about 4 ft but I forget to bring my legs up to clear the fence, got about half way over and my PJ's clip the fence and I do the most spectacular face plant on to the grassy area next door.
I was ok, never hurt myself except my pride and I shook it off thinking no-one had seen me....... WRONG!!
The neighbour was at the window (she must have had visitors over) with about 10 other people wetting themselves laughing at my failed attempt.... ME = Humiliated
Moral of the story - DON'T jump a fence if you dont have significant evidence that your neighbour isn't home!!
