Evel Keneval....
Since I was a little boy, whenever I'm on a train journey I look out of the window and imagine a motorcyclist trying to drive alongside the train, using ramps to leap roads, and maybe its about time he crashed in a blazing heap and I bought myself an MP4 player.

childhood?
I still do that to this day, but it's no motorcyclist, it's me, and I'm running. I wish I was that fit and able to make those jumps in real life!

Suddenly I now feel normal
I used to take lots of trains and had all sorts of accompanying imaginations. Remote control cars controlled by me, real cars, motorbikes like you, me, but my favourite were the gangs of high speed little people. I should take the train to London soon and see if they're still there...

I've never worked out what happened...
but when I was on a coach several years ago, travelling south on the M6 through the Lake District, I noticed a guy a few hundred metres away running through a field.

Nothing unusual in that you might think, apart from the fact that the guy seemed to be running at about the same speed as the coach (~60mph). Every time he reached a hedge/stone wall he jumped over it (reaching up to 2 or 3 times his own body height in some cases). This continued for a couple of miles until he changed course and ran off into the distance until we could no longer see him.

I would have seriously doubted myself, but my friend who was sitting next to me noticed exactly the same thing.

But I have a giant chainsaw that can cut through anything: other cars, bridges, etc

the vehicle in question varies.

Thankyou.
I'd completely forgotten about doing this as a child, and your post reminded me. (Along with many others, I see!).

Cheers,
