Knees

Zane does this thing where he flings himself into the air and comes crashing down on his knees, and then he'll sit with his knees in front of him, his legs bent back and to the side, and his butt on the ground. As an adult, may we all say "ow"? Cause... ow. When do we lose the flexibility to sit like that? I remember noticing for the first time that it wasn't comfortable to kneel down and sit on my feet, Japanese style. That was sometime in high school. I can only manage an approximation of cross legged sitting.

I console myself that i can still put my palms to the ground when i'm stretching over to touch my toes. And i've got good balance. And maybe my knees don't bend that way because they never need to bend that way unless i want to, y'know, sit like that. So i'm probably okay.

I can still sit like that, but the dropping to my knees from standing as hard as he does? No.
