Drunken Master...My friend theorised that all it took to do a Jackie Chan style run up and over a wall was sufficient speed and belief... he was wrong, much to my amusement he ran straight into the wall and bounced of slightly stunned!
I found out on the same night that just because you can climb the wooden trelis and the beams at the top are parallel doesn't mean you can do the parallel bars like those olympic fellas... if, like me, you are 6 foot something and your weight vastly out does your upperbody strength you will get halfway across before gravity takes a special and personal interest in you, gently persuading you to return 7 foot to the floor post-haste carving up the inside of your arms on the way down on the wooden beams!
Apparently drunkeness is no substitute for martial arts skill, gymnastic training, or basic physical fitness!
