This my second video. Im slinging into lake Michigan. My last fig.8 throw you can see me hitting myself in the back of the head. I stepped in a hole just as I am about to throw forward. Its the first time that ever happened to me. Probably gonna hold off on videos now.

Yes, I saw you conk yourself in the head there, can't be good for ya' if you're already a dork... I think what happened, (aside from the hole, maybe the cause as well,) was that the sling lost its tention, without centrifugal force it will droop. The main thing would be not to hit yourself in the face.

Stepping in the hole threw off my ballance and my arm hesitated which dropped the pouch into the back of my head. I have never ever hit my self and when I did I got it video. I did not hit my leg.

I brushed the loaded pouch on the side of my head once. The closest I've been to hit myself.

It didn't hurt at all because the pouch lost all its momentum when I stepped in the hole. Could have been a lot worse.
