1) Wow, he is really fast! Have you guys considered moving to Africa?

2) great upper body strength!

3) Very nice. I couldn't make it half that far. Who am I kidding - I can't even do two in a row.

4) Dave, if you hung from those bars your knees would be scraping on the ground. That's why you couldn't make it, way too much friction.

5) Go Gareth! That is an amazing feat. I wish I could do that.

6) WOW!!! We are impressed! When we used to try the monkey bars (in the "old" days), they were much farther off the ground (I think- the memory goes first when you're old, doesn't it?)! Our children grow up, but their parents do NOT grow older, right??

7) *score!!!* =)

i have to say, doing the same would be no big deal for myself (*blithely gazes at fingernails; polishes them on lapel*).

wait. whaddya mean i have to keep my feet off the ground??
