Default Short people be grateful

that your feet do not touch the floor when on your bikes as this would not happen to you when standing up a bit early exiting the back of a Transit van. 3 hours in A&E for them to spend 5 minutes cleaning and applying Cyanoacrylate glue (SuperGlue). The doctor said he could see my skull whilst cleaning it out. Luckily it will be hidden by my full head of hair when it re-grows.

Good effort, if you had hair that would leave a really noticable cracking scar, alas it will just leave a crack scar

I have a scar on the side of my head from doing a hand stand in the back of a car when I was little.

Doesn't look like much has been shaved off, if any!

Looks like you had a fun afternoon! I also don't think short people should envy tall people...sitting on a plane for 11hours going to America with your legs pressed against the seat in front is also one of my main dislikes of being tall!

But they have to ask people to get them "top shelf magazines" don't they?

OUCH that looks a sore one. Did you manage to keep the bike upright after your head stopped spinning and you figured out what happened?

Well Lilly, normally us tall folk crounch when in the back of a van then stand up just as we step out but I stood up a step too early and smashed my head into the lock at the top of the roof. No bikes were involved. I was loading furniture with a neighbour on Friday night.
