When I was in the 5th grade I was riding my old bike (Schwinn Stingray knockoff) and hopped a curb. The bolt holding the seat to the post had loosened and the banana seat flipped up and over backwards. Unlike you, I didn't notice until I sat down.
That memory has kept my behavior in line my whole life, to ensure I avoid prison.
