A freind of mine tld his younger sister he could teach her to fly, she believed him and after running around the back yard flaping her arms about for a while over a few days he told her he thought she was ready.
He took her to the top of the stairs and hepled her climb over the railing, then told her to flap like crazy and jump... the 4 metre drop meant she broke her arm!
About six weeks after it came out of the plaster he said she did not flap hard enough... gues what, yep you guessed it, she did the same jump and broke the other arm!
