There is an argument that the less kids are exposed to challenging experiences, the less able they will be to take part in them. Which in turn will mean a need for more H&S... which mena they'll have even less exposure to... am I going round in circles here...?!

we used to pull a dozen polls about 12 foot long out from the cellar a big barrel of rope and build stuff in the playground of the school we met at .

rope bridges and zip lines etc using the tow hitch on two landies as anchor points .. :cool:

But we got told off as there were no crash mats.

or gloves for handling rope or polls :roll:

it's more fun if it might hurt  :lol:

Not that it ever did , apart from one night when the scouts entertained the cubs with a game...and the cub leader panicked and broke her wrist :lol: :lol:

Game involved putting a plank across a crash mat and getting somebody to stand on the plank..

the person was then told that the plank would be lifted into the air with them on it . they were then blindfolded and two people holding the end of the plank raised it 2 or 3 inches from the mat .

the trick is that you place a third person in front of the one on the plank and place the hands of the plank rider on their shoulders to steady them selves.

as the plank is raised the 2 or 3 inches the third person slowly drops to their knees very smoothly thus making the person on the plank think they are 4 or 5 feet in the air :lol: :lol:

unfortunately the cub leader panicked and jumped through out her arms and hit the floor with a bump :twisted:
