More hilarities from the gym.

So, Wednesday night I decided to go to the gym after taking Murphy on a walk. I was on the last treadmill near a tiny little area where people can stretch, use free weights, etc. I must explain the physical settings so you can properly understand this. You walk up a tiny ramp towards the locker rooms, and it is on the left at the top of the ramp. It's a raised floor, so it has 2 bars that are about waist high around the perimeter of the space.

I'm running running running and out of the corner of my eye I see a gentleman in khaki pants, a nice pair of shoes, a belt, and a black shirt walk into the area. I immediately assume that he works there as he's dressed professionally, that is, until he started doing martial arts right there in the middle of the room. In particular he was doing tai chi with some kicks and karate chops mixed in. I started audibly laughing, because it caught me so off guard. The guy next to me then started laughing at me laughing and told me I had to go home and you tube the following clip. I kid you NOT this is almost exactly what the man looked like, except instead of shirtless and in linen pants he had on khakis and dress clothes.

I thought he was done making me laugh, until he went to leave the area. Now, mind you, it's literally 2 steps to get out of the area and onto the ramp, but instead this fella decided to walk almost to the exit and then JUMP the bars to the ground. I've never laughed so hard at a middle aged man in all my life.
