I was about the same age when I tried to walk on a limb from one pine tree to another. Heard the crack and remember hitting the first few branches on the way down.
Fell about forty or fifty feet and was knocked out briefly. I came to with my younger brother standing over me, poking me with his foot, singing "When the bough breaks the baby will fall!"
I got up and kicked his ass.
