defeating the giant

Last night I got the privilege of working with Jason. For all those who do not know him, Jason is very tall- long legs and arms.  I am pretty sure my head reaches his hips.Yes, his legs are as tall as me.

 We were messing around with a club. He would swing and I would do the “steps”, and had pretty bad results. I would be in his arm span therefore, easily defeated. Teresa was watching from across the room. She came over and suggested I try going were he could not reach- behind his back. I try and have some success.  Jason then adds to my success by telling me once his head is across his toe line, theres no way of him regaining his balance.  He simply can not get his long legs back underneath him, resulting in gravity taking over and him going to the ground. So I try. And wouldn’t you know, I didn’t even have to touch him for him to fall down!

Then the fun began… well maybe not for Jason. 

Thanks Jason!!!!
