Humans at younger ages have not only less fear, but are quicker to act and react, that is why children learn so fast, and pick up what we say and do.
Also there is the anticipation factor that people have.
Some, like me, can't play checkers or cards because I can't do that.
Others have a natural instinct as clear as black and white.
Like an artist, or musician, you can't learn that shit, you are born with it.
But I like others, have been born with the ability to understand mechanical things.
So we all are different, with strong points and lesser abilities.
"A man has to know his limitations" as Eastwood once so eloquently put it.
I've watched motorsports competitors and as well as others over the years, some just have that "knack".
Sadly if is fleeting, as any aged "athlete" can attest.
But back to the point, to watch a "driver" never lift in a straight or corner and see the Right rear wheel just billowing smoke, and pleading for traction.
Then he blips the loud peddle, for a quick bite and darts low or high in a slide job on the competitor.
All the while, the hairs on my arms are standing up, producing goose bumps like the the first time I enjoyed a woman's intimacies, so many many decades ago.
And if I have to explain that, people would not understand.
We all are very different, yet so much alike.
Thank God for this great country and the world we live in.
I think this should be in "general talk/ off topic"
But that decision is above my pay grade.
