Technique 2: The Sudden Swoon

Where to Place Your Trust

The Sudden Swoon is a delicate art, requiring precise timing and a strong stomach. It's a trust fall that's more like a trust leap, a trust dive, or trust plummet.

Key Principles:

• Find a sturdy object, preferably a large cat or a bemused friend
• Closing your eyes will only increase the risk of face-planting
• Trust, but also be prepared to scream

Common Variations:

• Trust Fall with Eyes Open (for the truly daring)
• Trust Fall while Blindfolded
• Trust Fall while Whispering the Pledge of Allegiance
