It's not the "I can still do it vs I cannot" aspect that gets me... it's the fascinating brain subprocess that happened totally unbeknownst to me and is kinda overriding my decisions. that I find amazing....

I mean if I kid was in danger or whatever I'm sure I'd jump 10ft down (and crater), but clearly a subtle subprocess in my brain at some point, based on no significant accidents or injuries, made an analysis on my weight, age, condition and left a "cookie" there, and it wins over my conscious desire to jump down... It really is a funny thing... "nope, you're not doing it" - it's worthy of a doctorate study, I'd be curious to know how that works ! Lizard brain I guess.
