Heads up!
What my work group is doing for our holiday party:



Here's why I'm nervous (besides me just being a wimp):
Through out middle school and high school gym classes, regardless of the sport we were playing, I would get hit in the head with a ball. Volleyball, softball, football, all of those have hit me in the head. With football, I wasn't even playing, I was watching the faculty vs. 9th graders game on the sidelines and an overthrown pass hit me right in the head. For volleyball, the school principal had stopped in the check on the class (7th grade) and wanted to serve the ball for the next round. It hit me square in the face. We even had a bowling unit in 9th grade, with big thick rubber bowling balls. We were supposed to take turns sitting behind the pins to catch the ball and on my turn, I had my legs in front me to catch the ball with my feet. The ball hit my feet, bounced up and slammed me right in the jaw. In 10th grade I was hit in the head during a jogging class. A basketball class was using the other half of the gym and someone didn't catch a pass. Instead, it landed right on the top of my head. I swear, I am some kind of sports injury magnet.

This wind tunnel seems safe, but then so does jogging. And observing a football game. I know that something funky is going to happen that will result in a head injury. My helmet will probably fly off, whip around the tunnel, and end up hitting me right on my now unprotected head. If it's going to happen to anyone, it will be me.
