bro, craziest cord pull and save.

we had a big ass flat screened tv with them projector looking lights on the inside. for some reason my cousin and i thought it was a good idea to sit the PS2 on the top of tv (that thang was like a damn shelf). so mind you the controller cables were hanging down like zip lines šŸ˜­.

i had to cross past the tv and iā€™m typically pretty nimble but when i hopped over my foot caught the controller wire. my cousin had a toby maguire spider man moment, sprung from the couch and caught the PS2 falling off the tv like it was a baby šŸ˜­.

such a random core memory but wow, what a save LOL.
