Cliffhanger

2003 Reader Submission
Pending Acceptance

This story is about me, and a cliff. One day I went camping and my friends and I were collecting fire wood. One of them was leaning on and then kicking down loose bits off the side of the cliff. I being the stupid idiot I am decided to do the same. Even though I had a large pile of sticks in my arms. I started to kick bits of the cliff down even though my friends were telling me it wasn't a good idea. Ignoring them though i kicked more bits off cliff down to the ground below. I leant on too much of a slant and the wieght of the sticks and gravity propeled me down the cliff. The others found me at the bottom of the cliff still hanging on to the sticks. I expect to win a thanks from god in the future for removing my self from the gene pool and a darwin award from you guys for the same reason.

no death, and not DA level stupidity IMHO

It must have been a very small cliff - I pretty much agree with Charles, so I wonder why he chose neutral.

It has possibilities- Try re-writing it with a bit more humor? Details, age, etc.?

Please tell your friends to keep us informed, ok?

The fact that you were told that this wasn't a good idea and carried on anyway definitely put you into contention... but this is primarily a humour site and I don't see quite enough humour in your story, though I suppose it could be rewritten... Meanwhile, do rest assured that you may well be considered for an award if you continue on as you have been.
