  • I clicked to read the rest of the story. Of course they’ve gotten most details wrong. I was there, one of the 12, and certainly not missing. But the story of what really happened at the old amusement park can never be told. A college dare gone wrong that we all wish to forget.

  • Ah, the twelve. Ring any bells? Someone dared us to recreate the Last Supper at the amusement park, except on the thing that shoots you way up! And so we got our food on the handrail, sat side by side for a picture… then he flipped the lever. And we found ourselves up in the sky.

  • As gravity started to pull the Reverse Bungee down & the group photo was taken, my 11 friends screamed & laughed, but I got pensive. You can see it in the photo. I sat there, wondering how I, the loser of the 12—the Judas, the March, the 2 a.m.—ever got so many undeserved friends

  • After the ride was over, we looked at the photo. We all looked so happy, despite the insanity of the situation. That’s when I realized these people were my true friends, and I felt suffused with their love.
