When I was out hiking with some friends, one of them did that. We were very amused.....I didn't know he could jump that high. He was also the kid who played with mercury when thermometers broke in the lab.

He now teaches psychology in California.

I played with mercury.

Actually my dad says every kid played with mercury back in the 1940's when he was a kid. He also said he would shine up dimes with the mercury. And tomorrow he turns 76 years old.
