I jumped out of a moving car once. I was a freshman in highschool and a buddy of mine was givin me a ride home with a few other friends. They said they weren’t gonna slow down for my house, so going about 40 mph I bailed out. I was younger so i didnt think about the decision much and just jumped feet first. that was a dumb idea. I felt like my arm was broken a bit afterwords but everything ended up fine. Had some cool lookin roadrash and funny story in the end of it.

I was standing in the bed of a 59 Chevy Apache trying to reach into the cab through the drivers side window. We turned and, naturally, I was flung from the truck. It was quite surreal and perhaps it was because it happened so fast that I didn’t have time to react, but I made a complete flip and rolled head over heels from the road into the grass. Besides tucking my head for the impact, I was mostly limp and my momentum did all of the work. I immediately stood up surprised, but unscathed.

while ive never jumped from a car, back when i was a kid i built a gokart with my dad and many hours of fun were had with it. One time racing down the hill (this thing went FAST) i could see one of the screws holding the steering cable pulley was about to snap -luckily i was close to the grassy edge on the road so i bailed and rolled just as it snapped. I was fine but the gokart flattened a neighbours rose bush.

I never jumped from a car, but we use to ride or hitch the trains that went by my house. They ran past a shopping mall we used to hang out at when we were kids. One time on the way home (I just purchased a 45 RPM record Good loven by the young rascals) a freight was slowing down so I hitched on it for my ride. Before I knew it it picked up speed and felt like it was going 90mph (probably was 30mph)anyway I was by my house and didn’t want to take it into the rail yard and get busted so got ready to jump.I held the record in my teeth and jumped. After rolling I jumped up and was looking for my record. I found it with a nice bite mark taken out! I didn’t have the piece in my mouth and never felt doing it. Needless to say the tucking thing is a good Idea, PS get a mouth piece.
