Here’s a story on how i almost just killed an old lady 
Within the first week of this quarantine my roomate(Wyatt) and i were starting to go insane. We decided to start getting in some good cardio by going on rides around town, Wyatt on rollerblades and i would ride a longboard.
Throughout the first couple of weeks i would joke about Wyatt for looking goofy on the blades. While for some reason i guess i thought it was cooler pushing a longboard?
After a while of watching Wyatt effortlessly glide through the town and trails we’d ride on i started to grow some curiosity and interest.
So I finally gave in last week and bought myself some brand new blade runner 3000’s. Honestly the greatest investment of my life cause it’s the most fun I’ve had in a while.
My first 2 times riding them we started on a beginners trail that’s flat for the most part with a few incline/declines, nothin too rough for me considering I’ve never been on blades before.
By my 3rd time i was feeling pretty comfortable and wanted to test my limits. So we went on a more advanced trail that has some intense hills. I was doing good up until we got to this blind corner that was way too steep i caught too much speed and fell hard on my ass.
(NSFW) this was the result of that
i couldn’t sit down for like 3 days. But i could still ride some blades, i wasn’t gonna let this stop me

The next few days we found an intermediate trail that was perfect for me to get more comfortable breaking. After a few times i felt i was ready to conquer the trail i fell on.
So last night we went back. And i was more ready than ever. With no hesitation i went through the blind corner, down the hill and made it to the bottom like it was nothin
Now I’m cocky and feel like i can get through anything on these blades. We start heading back to the cars and I’m mobbing down the hills as fast as i can. Next thing i see is a crowd of people standing in the middle of the trail.
I’m going way too fast to stop so i start screaming telling them to move to the left so i can pass on the right. Pretty simple instructions so for the most part everyone jumps over to the left out of my way.
Everyone except an 83 year old lady. If she had just stayed where she was i would’ve been able to go right passed her with no complications. But very last second she jumped right in front of my path and i plowed right into this poor lady
When I say plowed into her I’m talking like Ray Lewis guarding the end zone in the Super Bowl type hit. This little old lady caught air flipped and landed on ground so hard. I bail and land into some rocks but i get right back up and rush over to this lady
I’m running back thinking i just killed her. Like there’s no way this fragile lady is getting up and walking away from what just happened.
I get back and she’s laying on the ground quietly and not moving. As some people crowed around her to make sure she’s ok this random guy comes up out of nowhere and aggressively picks her up off the ground and stands her up.
I’m standing there in shock just thinking “what in the world just happened” like this is some shit you’d see in a jackass movie where Jonny Knoxville dresses up as an old man and gets tackled by a stranger in public. It felt surreal
I start apologizing and she starts saying she’s fine and that she knows it was an accident. She takes a few steps looks down at her arm, pulls her long sleeve up and we see her arm is snapped in half
Keep in mind we are about 1/2 a mile away from the parking lot. I start to panic and ask if she wanted me to call an ambulance or if i could carry her back to the car.
She said she was fine and was able to walk back but wanted me to walk and talk just incased she collapsed and to keep her mind off the pain.
So her and i break off from the group and start walking back together. I’m talking to her about her family, where she’s from, talking about her garden at her house, really just about anything you can think of.
By the time we get back to the car we became best friends. She wants me to come over and teach her how to use her new computer she just got. She also invited me over for dinner when she heals
We get to the car and i help get her into the passenger seat. First thing she says when she gets in was “oh my gosh meeting you was such a nice experience, i just bought a new ATV 4 Wheeler, we should go on a ride sometime that would be fun”
She was the sweetest little lady ever and I’m horrified of the conditions but I’m glad we met. And that’s the story of how i almost killed the sweetest old lady ever
