Four to the floor, I was sure…

OP, you have not heard the horror stories teachers tell about students leaning too far back and the consequences. I've heard about death, paralyzation, mental damage, and some other things.

I haven't done that since 3rd grade. A boy in my class fell and busted his head open... the blood...

heh. four on the floor used to be a term back in the sixties and seventies referring to a four speed manual transmission gearshift on the console or in the case of bench seats, right on the floor.
