One time in HS we climbed the fence at night at Barton Springs. I ran down the hill on the south side and without looking jumped into what is usually 6 ft of water. The pool was drained and the exact same thing happened to me. I'm really really lucky that I didn't dive head first or I'd be typing by looking at a screen and blinking.

When I was little my grandmother warned me about diving at Barton Springs.  She told the story of how the governor's son (Allan Shivers) broke his neck and was in a wheelchair. 

 

30 years later I had an appointment to meet some Shivers guy in downtown Austin.  The door opened from his office and he came out, in a wheelchair.  I was dumbstruck for a second as I realized I was meeting the guy my grandmother had told me about.  I think he probably saw my surprised and figured I wasn't expecting someone in a wheelchair.

No need to try this out at the local football field.  I'll be airborne for sure before I get to the cart corral.

A German hotel came up with a brilliant way to keep people from running in the hallways:

Now people just run in the hallway with their eyes closed.
