“If you pizza when you want to french-fry, you’re gonna have a bad time.” – Thumper

This brave little 10 year old heeded the advice of Thumper (and her ski coach) and decided to take her first plunge off of a 40K Nordic Ski Jump. What’s so great about this video is not so much the feat itself but the real-ness of the experience. We’ve all been there. Whether at the top of our first Black Diamond, park jump in-run, cliff drop, half-pipe, etc. we can relate. Finding the will to let go and drop-in is as much the experience as the act itself. In a way, the jitters, the emotion, it’s always there, making the experience all that much more worth it, whether it’s the first time or the 1,000th time.

Now, if you’re shaking your head, saying no, not me… Well, for 1) You can’t front on that and/or 2) It’s time to step it up, scare yourself a little and live. This 10 year old did.

NOTE: This video is all about the audio, start to finish. And, as you hear the girl’s inner monologue (sheepish tone and all) don’t tell me you’re not thinking, “yeah, sounds kind of familiar.”
