I miss old America...don;t you guys? Remember when no one followed you putting bumpers everywhere and strapping helmets on you? How did we live through all this?

This was me on the bike, 100%. I jumped my neon green Mongoose with the Z-Rims all over the hood. Was a bunny hoppin son of a bitch. Loved it when something turned into a construction site and there was leftover bricks and boards to make new jumps! Kids these days really have missed out on life.
Reminder: "They" took this from you and your children. It's time to take it back.

We did this cause this guy was all over TV in the 70's so we all wanted to do the same wild stuff. This guy was wild and a tough dude. Made all his jumps on Harley's! He was red white and blue "Merican" to the core tho...
Bout 10 years ago my wife and i visited the Philippines, we were actually just discussing the differences to the US and RP concerning safety laws.. and lo and behold, 6 kids in shorts and flip flops all hanging off one very small bike rolled by... every kid on that bike was having the time of their lives.. exclamation point was added to our original conversation.

They are supposed to be just being kids like that...best times for them is the "local village" group running together amuck like we did!

I think my favorite one in this photo is the stunned girl with her hands on her head and her jaw agape! Totally amazed and impressed!

AMEN, and a scraped knee was the norm, a little Bactine spray, a bandaid, and back outside we went❤️❤️❤️

It's not just that we were that crazy brave either...who do you know today that would lay on the ground for you like that after the ramp? Your friends were as insane as you were!
Working to stay on the good path in a good way. #SaveTheChildren. I dont accept psyop of DS vs Q/Trump, its problem/savior, so block me 😎
Cheers!

We didn't give a $hit, we were (mostly) independent, and 'walked everything off' without a care
Also Our parents didn't give a $hit and let us be kids, unless there was a really good reason to step in
Good times !
Then helicopter parenting and 'safety first' arrived in the 90's

I love this picture. It represents my childhood. Ironically, the very people who did this in the neighborhood are the very ones who are wearing the safety gear now and bike helmets.....
it was a simpler time. the whole neighborhood spent time outside including the parents. As a child, you knew if your parents where unavailable another neighbor would step up and help out.

We didn’t have streetlights, but basically somehow you ended up at home when it got dark. We played outside, rode horses bikes and go carts, used real
axes and saws to cut paths through the woods and build forts and tree houses. We didn’t need to be coddled or watched over, it was the most amazing time to grow up.

When we (my buds and I) were 12 and 13 years old, we used to walk into the general store in our home town WITH shotguns in our hands, and buy shot shells to walk thru town with the guns/ammo to go squirrel hunt. Poor boys couldn't afford a box of shells so the store owner would sell them to us individually for ¢.50 each. We could all afford to buy two or three and that was enough for a success story for squirrel. If not, we always found plenty of tactical stumps, strategically tossed cans into the river to shoot from the bridge as they passed beneath us floating...but nary a single unspent shell ever made it home. We even used to be able to bike all over and gather soft drink bottles to redeem for a dime each for those shells mentioned!

Boys from the 70's...do you remember why we jumped out bikes like this?I do, we watched all his stuff!
