Yeah, I've done a lot of flying in my life, but never experienced anything like that. My friend Nick was a pilot for a small aircraft for, I think it was a Cessna. I can't remember which model it was, but it was a little four seater. And anyway, I believe, well, I'm not even sure if it was, it may have been a two seater, because it was only me and him. And I was young, I was maybe, I don't know, 12, and he was like 21, 22. But he was my, not really next door neighbor, he lived across the street from me. And everybody used to go flying with him. And I always wanted to go on a small plane, and I always wanted to sit in the cockpit and all that kind of stuff. And I would just bug him, bug him, bug him. And I guess somebody wasn't able to go, one of my other friends that I grew up with wasn't able to go, so he took me. And he showed me a stall, which at the time as a kid, that was like a big thing. He turned the engine off and let the airplane stall and showed me how to do that, I shouldn't say show me, but showed me how he does that. And that scared the crap out of me. Turning the engines off when you're however many feet high. I mean, I know it glides, but now I know. And I know they teach you that now. When you're young, I got to say that kind of scared me. But taking a nose dive like that, that would be kind of scary. Especially, well, you said you were a kid, so I guess the adrenaline is still pumping though, that's for sure. Anyway, Cliff, thanks for sharing that. Yeah, I don't have any exciting stories like that. But thanks again for the check in, thanks for the recheck. And next we'll go to KB7PVW, Mel. Good morning, Mel. What you doing? What is the most dangerous thing that you've ever done? Over to you, Mel. Good morning.
