OMG...

Unread postby nessa_pv » Tue Oct 25, 2005 11:46 am

I saw this thing on t.v. that had to do with pole vault and I was shocked cause they usually dont show anything on t.v. about polevault so I was excited....Well it turned out to like a pole vault gone wrong thing.. It showed a video of a girl polevaulting and she went up and the pole went with her and the camera got all fuzzy(like they dropped it)..Well what they said happened was that the pole went through her neck and she got killed or something!! :dazed: :eek: .... I dont know if it was just a lie or if this girl really got killed...I saw this like a week ago and now I am scared to vault..I'll still do it but damn that will always be in the back of my head....

Well, actually, that was a guy wearing a wig... and that guy was me. Yeah i did break the pole, and it did go through my neck.... all the way. Lucky, it went through at just the right angle to where it didnt hurt me at all. It was suppose to be a pre-halloween event, but didnt really work out that way. The other half of the pole you ask? Oh, it flew all the way across the football field and went through the bleachers, right next to where someone was sitting! :P


just kidding...
Just you wait...
