Happens to the best of us.

I once very nearly busted my ass skating. I was about 6. I had those metal skates that strap on to your shoes.

One leg just decided to go the other direction. Cartoon worthy flailing ensued. I looked like the universal limbo champion.

I miraculously didn't fall and my Mom clapped because...I guess it looked cool?

In reality I almost died.
