Where is your tail?

[Jiro]

Being a bush kid from Australia, one of my favourite past times happens to be climbing trees. It's just something the kids would do - go out and climb any and every tree they could like little monkeys.

Does anyone else like climbing trees (or buildings or whatever, I don't discriminate)? Share your tree climbing stories, particularly ones where you've fallen.

I have a falling story to share, but it's a secret for now

i was a big fan of climbing trees when i was young, sometimes i would spend all day climbing, until my parents cut them all down

[blackmage_nuke]

Tree climbing was one of the adventures I missed out on during my childhood, along with skipping class and underage drinking

[Marky Tee]

as a child it was y main pass time
that and falling off them and taking wee trips to the hospital :P

I don't mind rock walls... and then I remember to look down and-

I love climbing trees! It's such a underrated activity... I mean, how can someone not like climbing a tree? It's your primal past-time people!
PS. When I was about 7 years old, me and my mates were climbing and in one moment I grabbed a branch which snapped,resulting in one broken arm. Thankfully, it was a left arm. My mother was pissed at me, hehe...

I tried to be tricky and jump from one branch to another a short distance away. With walls, you have something to counter your momentum. With trees, you don't. Suffice to say I hit the branch, swung under and fell (I think it was something like 3m, but then again, I did hit my head ) and landed on the ground with a puff of dust.

Magic moment apparently.

I enjoy climbing hills but it's not so much because I enjoy climbing, I just want to see what's behind it.

I'm a surf kid from Australia, and I too love climbing trees.
Part of the reason my brothers and I have a high regard for monkeys xD

I don't really have any epic tree falling stories, though it was funny to watch Jiro's previously mentioned stack
He was jumping for the branch I was sitting on, after watching him jump I wondered what he was trying to accomplish xD

I used to have calluses all over my little hands from climbing trees. We had a lot of good climbing trees in my neighborhood. I still get the urge to climb a tree when I see a good one.

I have a nice scar on the back of my thigh because you should never climb a mimosa tree in cowboy boots.

We had an awesome tree that was perfect for climbing until it started rotting and then it blew over. But, we planted a new one that's the same kind (tulip tree), and maybe my babies or grandbabies can climb it!

I climbed a very large tree one time. Then my brother pushed me out and I landed face first onto the cement.

[Raistlin]

I used to love climbing trees. I even attempted to built a tree fort with my little cousin when I was a kid that didn't really work out so well.

[theundeadhero]

I climbed trees all the time. In basic training my drill sergeant started calling me Monkey after we started running the obstacle courses

[The Jamie Star Scenario]

I used to climb trees all the time, especially great big ones with the intent of putting up a rope swing. Man I love rope swings.
