826CHI Volunteer Photo Book: My World Project - Part 1: THE DOWNSIDE OF SOARING

After swinging for almost an hour, Erica became bored with the park. In an attempt to top it all off, she swung with all her strength and soared. She soared in the air for a little more than a second, but it all came to an end. She landed, but the rest of her body kept moving. This caused her shins to break in half, and the bone to come out through her skin and jeans. She screamed and everyone nearby screamed with her. The ambulance arrived and rushed her to the emergency room.
