    Thank goodness you weren't hurt. Also everyone be careful it you have hardwood floors. The chair will roll away from you leaving you on the floor and it's not a pertty picture getting up.

    Operator error can be a pain sometimes.

    Great idea but I'd have to be a gopher or badger to make a tunnel under our patio slab.

    I ditto Ninnie. Did you hurt yourself? Had both my knees replaced last Summer & I don't need to go thru the wall (I'd go zooming to my mailbox instead of walking out there. I'd look like the cartoon where they have reved up wheels for legs & feet.........vrrooom!

    Okay gals, I can't believe you are so gullible. I really didn't go through the wall but I bet if I got a good start on a straight away I probably could except that mine are cement. I hope I didn't give anybody heart failure but I'm sure most of you knew I was kidding. I just thought of this little joke as I was actually cleaning my casters thinking that it could probably happen but you'd have to have paper thin walls. My chair really does roll much better though. By the way you can sign me up for the demolition derby & I'll be waiting for my new seat belt, shoulder strap & air bag! (PS: I got my driver's license in a cracker jack box!)

Please send your address as we are designing a special seatbelt for you with the attached Shoulder strap. (just kidding)..
    I don't think I could really get too much momentum going anyway since the actual floor space for movement in my room is only 3' x 4'!

    LOL Well I bought it. LOL Hook, line & sinker. LOL I read it & thought, "Well now she has the start to a new doorway." LOL I have wood laminate floors and those sucker are slick! If I had the room I could sure fly!
