Tape Measure Launch

I ran straight toward a chunky yellow tape measure sitting half-open on the armrest cushion. The glossy metal blade was poking out just enough, so I jumped right onto the hooked tab, gripped the metallic edge, and gave the side lock button a furious kick! Wham! The spring coiled back with a lightning snap, whipping me across the cushion in a split-second ride. I got tossed right into a soft valley between two throw pillows, rolling over and laughing before I even stopped sliding. What an insane rebound!
