DOV: Bringing you ludicrous stunts since 1992
Whilst modifying my filing system the other day (i.e. shoveling sheets of
paper out of the bottom of my wardrobe), I made a chance discovery.
I found photos from my first ever time skiing, and thought I should put one or
two on the web in case I lose them again!
(First ever DOV stunt caught on camera...?
I throw myself over the red tape and roll uncontrollably down the hill, much to the amusement of onlooking Austrians in the Cafe. Its at this point I realse the dark bits are rocks. Much to the amusement of onlooking Austrians in the Cafe).
The whole trip was about as stunt-filled as you would expect when you take a
group of competitive 12 year olds to the top of a mountain and tell them to
"be careful".
Anyone wondering where I got the scar I sport on my chin from? It was on this
very trip, when I careened into an ice block that had fallen off a snowplow. The
scar came from the fact that I kneed myself so hard in the chin in the ensuing
crash that I required 6 stitches!
(DOV 1992: Looking shifty even back then. I was obviously up to no good!
If you look closely at my chin you can see the stitches I recieved the previous
day after attempting to "zig" around a block of ice at 40mph. In
heindsight I should have "zagged").
Benefits of busting chin open #1:
(Blonde 25 year old ski instructor, "Crystal", takes pity on you and
frequently hugs head to boobs. Result.)
So, here's to 10 years of stunts.
Hopefully many more will follow!
