About This Quote

The Sunday school trip: While us girls were alone, a nasty piece of work called Louise, aged about eleven, decided that it would be a ‘fun’ idea to hang someone over the cliff ... me! is a quote from the book The Black Swan: The Impact of the Highly Improbable by Nassim Nicholas Taleb. The book was published in 2007 and is about the perceived certainty that we have in our lives and how that perception shapes our decisions and actions. This quote comes from Chapter Three of the book and takes place during a field trip taken by the children to see Great Diving Lala.

The great diving Lala is described as "a giant wooden man who had been used as a diving board for the local swimming baths, has been repainted black, and is now suspended from a tree. In addition to diving from the top of this tower, you can also sit on his back as he slowly swings from side to side."
