There is no scientific evidence … the game builds any trust among participants.

This exercise must be vol-
untary. It’s impermissible to trust-
fall somebody else, like God
did Job—shoved him arsy-
versy onto a shit
pile then garnished the poor
sap with boils. Not,
we hope, Yahweh’s signature
moment, and not to be repeated
alone at home with your baby
sister, as in, Don’t
trustfall little Trudi without strict
parental oversight. No
defenestrations either! It’s
different to meet up with cooperative
adult friends and trust fall each
other sequentially, standing
straight, feet on floor, arms
crossed over chest, then top-
pling backward (deep
breath) onto ex-
pectant sup-
port. Aaah! (sigh) How
reassuring, one’s universe. Let’s
do it again, higher, stage-
dive the pulsating cosmos. Soon
we’ll be ready to trust that
gravity will relent, and human
nature. Old age retreats
beyond recall as we trust-
fall into harmonious
white light.
