    Guys When Your Feeling Down Do This.........

    We all get down at times and sometimes want to fukkin end it or just get depressed.

    Here is what I have done a few times

    Get a pair of very good grip gloves, put a 40' fukkin ladder on top of your car and find a building like 20- 40 ft or so and get on top of roof and then hang off a fukkin ledge and I swear you will feel a lot better and not get depressed anymore. It puts things in perspective. Now of course you need to be a strong guy to hold on and with good gloves, the ladder can e next to you just in case you need help. I do not advise this though to all.

    I've seen guys fall 20 ft. back in my ironworking days it will not kill you unless you land on your head but you will be pretty sore for a few weeks.

    40 ft. is a different story falling 40 ft. if you land on your head you will break your neck and crush your skull and you are dead, if you land on your feet it is very possible that your legs will be forced through your pelvis and puncture your lungs causing you to suffocate, and if you land on your chest or back you will likely crush your rib cage and puncture your lungs and probably crush your skull.

    I would suggest the Terrell Owens route instead and just take enough pills to fuk you up but not enough to kill yourself instead of hanging off a building.

    Good post Coach. Sometimes you need to almost die to feel alive.

    I did not say jump

    It is a reality check when you think you have things bad and your dangling from a fukkin ledge it will scare you and re think your positions

    Why dangle? Wouldn't just standing on the ledge have the same effect?

    Friend of mine used to build grain elevators. He said he would dangle off the ledge that was 150' up. He said that was the biggest thrill he ever had.

    this is solid advice. you don't even need to hang from a ledge. just get good and high. and stand on your tip toes on top of a tall building's roof. I used a 6 story parking garage that I parked in at my last job.

    once every 4-5 months I'd climb up there, stand on my tip toes, look down and scream I want to live.

    i'd have nightmares where I was falling to my death for the next few nights. but I usually felt more confident in day to day settings after that. If you live near real life cliffs out in nature. I think it works better. because you don't get the random asshole that pops up at the wrong time, and is all like "don't do it man, its not worth it, think of your family"

    I'm like....... I know. I'm just doing a drill here dumbass
