Yeah, I imagined myself not qqquuuiiiittteee getting over the top,
falling straight down into the middle of the wing, which would totally
envelope me as I plummeted towards the ground streaming a bright line of
fabric. Of course, I would struggle valiantly, finally popping my
reserve, but it would just lie there beside me, since it would also be
totally enveloped.

My last thought would be "Hope they put this on YouTube!"
