Well, you would damned-well *hope* so. ;-) But, I wonder, how exactly 
*do* you practice throwing somebody 200 feet into the air without 
accidentally killing them anyway??

The tosser puts the tossee into a harness attached to a cable attached to a 
*really* big tripod or crane. At least, that's what they do in the circus.

Or maybe there's just a long list of people who want to get tossed into the 
air, so they figure a few are expendable. :-D

Hahahah!

Girl, you're a tossee. :-P

Fair enough. Still, I'd hate to be at a show and have that be the *one 
time* it doesn't quite go right... Man, to die just because you lost 
concentration for 0.02 seconds, that's harsh.
