And if you did what class grade/year would it had happened? What decade (if your comfortable sharing)?

I am wondering how many people actually did this and from what locations/ages/years it would have happened. For my education (American elementary-college years 2000’s-2010’s) I never had to do that. I feel like I had to be common enough that it is referenced in movies and tv shows.

    Yes, for U.S. elementary schools in the late 80’s it seemed common I thought (?)

    Also I sucked at that, I only ever made it a few feet up before giving up LOL. In my school it was always more of a race to test who can do it the quickest, not actually spend an entire week learning how to do it properly.

        I find it so interesting how PE is a class one can fail in some parts of the world. We have PE as a compulsory thing but would never get graded on it (just as well, refused to do a lot of it) unless we chose to do it for our GCSEs.
