Out of my depth
As a schoolkid, I signed up for a public speaking contest purely as a ruse to meet girls. It haunts me still: in front of 300 people, I started to speak, dried up, stood there for what felt like half an hour staring at the floor and then slowly walked back to my seat. Oh, and the girl I liked laughed.
Have you ever been utterly, completely, devastatingly out of your depth?

In PE class once
We were doing trampolineing. Now this was something I could actually do so wanting to be the first to be able to swing round wilst in the air, I did so, landing on my head and bouncing off the bloody thing. They wouldnt get me a neckbrace s I went home looking like Quasimodo.
