various experiments..
The first of which involved leaping off our massive garden wall with an open umberella in the hope of just gliding down Mary Poppins style..didn't. Unbrella turned inside out and I howled..lots!
Second was throwing the poor cat out of the window whilst testing the theory 'cats always land on their feet' (they do by the way), got smaked lots after an astonished mum saw said cat sailing past the kitchen window one day whilst she was doing the pots..
And finally, me and my little mate decided one day, whilst playing in the flat above her mums posh clothes shop..that it would be a really good idea to dress up her huge Doberman. This resulted in mates mum hearing a 'thud thud thud' down the stairs followed by said Doberman crashing through the door and into the shop wearing a pair of silk pyjamas, a wig and a pair of shades, to the great surprise of both her and all the customers. Little bastards!

Umbrella trick...
Me and my cousins once tried this, we didn't get hurt when we jumped off the top of our climbing frame, therefore it must work. Next test was to be the third floor, we were stopped as we were opening the window!
