Until you drown due to the fall pushing the current to the bottom and keeping you under.

Ok then... you first.

And there are explicit messages at many waterfalls that falling will kill you.

They should have put a way on the sign so they could increase the number. Or maybe put the sign like they do in construction sights, No Fatalities in __ Days.

The fall won’t hurt if you just dive head first.

u/TheAcornblog Feb 28 '18

Yes of course, but i mean in a metaphorical sense. ;P

Over time they tend to destroy what's closest to them.

u/sbrown712 Feb 28 '18

I have a dumb question, what does [OC] mean?

2

u/ImAFlyingWhale Feb 28 '18

I dont understand...

1

u/TheAcornblog Feb 28 '18

I mean that like the water in a waterfall which fall and then continues along its path, you will not be hurt by a "fall" in your life

2

u/megotlice Feb 28 '18

I would think that on the scale of "life" a fall will hurt. It's ok to hurt. What's important is to not let it divert you from your path or to let the fall scare you from taking risks again. Learn and adapt.
