Things like this always make me wonder who was the first to try it. Gives cliff diving a whole new meaning.

There is no fixing stupid. But, you can line it up in front of a wall and offer it a last smoke.

There is no such thing as a "transgender" person.  Only mental illness that should be discouraged.

True pioneers!

Individual mastery of gravity has been a yearning of mankind throughout all of recorded history.

As long as they aren't endangering innocents I say let them be.
For the invisible things of him since the creation of the world are clearly seen, being perceived through the things that are made, even his everlasting power and divinity, that they may be without excuse. Because knowing God, they didn’t glorify him as God, and didn’t give thanks, but became vain in their reasoning, and their senseless heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools.

Except themselves.

Gravity never hurt anyone who stood with his or her feet on the ground. Problems arise when you try to test the limits. As a long-ago commercial for one of the margarines used to say, "It's not nice to fool Mother Nature."

I wish the Ring had never come to me. I wish none of this had happened.

So do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us. There are other forces at work in this world, Frodo, besides the will of evil. Bilbo was meant to find the Ring. In which case, you also were meant to have it. And that is an encouraging thought
