- Go to I Need a Crane
I am in total sympathy with you. It is a life time ago, but I was told to do a handstand on the horse Box thing and flip right over and land on my feet on the floor. I started to cry. I knew I couldn't do it. Like you I was told to get out of the line.

Good Morning
FSI, I've decided I do not like Mr. Cranton. He was such a mean-spirited teacher that did not consider your safety in any way shape or form. I could never do any of these things in the gym. I've always been short but just couldn't do these things. One time we had to do dances like ballerina dances and that didn't go well at all. I was fine with things like volleyball and table tennis and I didn't mind when we had to exercise but that was it. Oh, and I did like it when we played basketball.

Your concerns were on point.
The crane comment was completely uncalled for. He should have feared for your safety.

Lol, I can identify with the "giraffe" reference. I am tall too. I did well in track and volleyball but tumbling and gymnastics was another thing completely that was an epic fail for me.
