format 1 #1 May 1, 2012 When you read about someone's mistake in some 'faraway' country, You don't really get it and acknowledge it and learn from it until it happens in "your'" neighborhood? Like... like they don't really jump and their mistakes aren't worth applying to your drop zones. How strange is that?What goes around, comes later.

JasonYergin 0 #4 May 2, 2012 The only thing I've learned from other countries is never drink the water there... Joking!! Actually I was taught an early age to learn from other peoples mistakes on the football field. Luckily I figured out how to apply that other things too. Not everybody was told that, then again not everybody was benched for being a skinny lil runt, so where some people had things easy early on they didn't learn things that would be helpful later in life._________________________________ ...Don't Get Elimated!!

format 1 #7 May 2, 2012 Ain't that strange? I'd be broken or dead many times if I didn't learn from jumpers worldwide. And another thing.. Wilder they were - Safer they propose now! What goes around, comes later. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
