w00t. amazing. first my parents were driving me around. my dad was behind the wheel. then for some reason we'd be driving down a stretch of road and we eventually lifted off the ground and the car behaved almost like a mini aeroplane. of course i didn't exactly have that feeling of being up in the air. we seemed to have been flying just above the treetops.
then we landed in some car park on a short landing strip/long stretch of the car park. we picked my sister up and once again we took off from the car park lot. i was probably still rather young. still a child i believe. we were up in the air again and we were going to pick my brother up as well. it is also correct to say the members of my family were all in correct order. i.e., to say i was the youngest, and so on.
we arrived at the next car parking lot and landed briefly. we had to wait a while before my brother showed up. he then walked up to us and got into the car. the family left for the skies as soon as he joined up and got into the car. as physics has it, here's the exciting part.
we were taking off when i wondered if the car was able to take the weight of 5 of us.
as the vehicle taxied off and lifted itself off the ground barely missing the car in front and over the railing, we cleared the ground in time across the monsoon drain after the car park lot. as the vehicle took off, it went clipped some trees. and around this point, the engine starting sputtering and gave problems. everyone was rather shocked. the engine just died on us.
it all felt rather surreal still however. the vehicle began to lose propulsion and started to dive towards the ground beneath us, head first. we seemed to start panicking but everyone was still seated upright. aircraft emergency instructions included having the passengers to tuck their head between their legs. nobody was doing that. i realised that instruction should apply and started trying to bend forward, towards my knees. i couldn't exactly do it. was it the seatbelt?
unfortunately, our fate was not known. i woke up around this point.
