where you spin around several times, bend over and friend gets behind you and kinds does the heimlich on you causing you to pass out for a few minutes.
@GoldenGirl: We had something like that in HS (70-74) where you squatted down, took 10 really big breaths, jumped up and friend squeezed you (and held you) causing you to pass out actually for like 5-10 seconds maybe.
Riding bikes with no helmets (never even heard of a bike helmet than).But we did learn duck and cover in elementary school in case of a nuclear attack.We also had sonic booms a lot.Seat belts, were not those the things that got in the way? We used to ride in the back of a pickup truck also.We used to play outside by ourselves, only coming home when the street lights came on or it was starting to get dark (country, no street lights).As 12 and 9 year olds, my brother and I would ride our bike to town (3 miles), through town (1 mile) and out to  A & W root beer stand (2 miles) for a root beer. Than back home the same way. 4951
