Roller skate. It’s been probably close to 50 years since I’ve done it and I’m positive I’d hurt myself.

Roller skate, skate boarding

Ride a bike. My Facebook feed has frequent posts of people my age (66) crashing their bikes, breaking ribs, smashing their helmets, breaking arms, having to have surgery to fix injuries. No thanks.

Mischief Night

 

[snowwite]

Ate dirt and collected caterpillars

 

[jimmymc]

Digging holes. My brother and I would dig forts in the woods behind out house, then find old pallets, street signs, or sticks to make a roof. I still think it's cool, but I have no desire to dig anything by hand ever again.

 

[PolymerSkywalker]

Ramping BMX bikes. Hurts my back just thinking about have to absorb the landing with my late 40s body. I could do it all day when I was a skinny 12 yo.
