QDMQDMQDM: nearly spun my Cub once - the Old Man used to do a lovely falling leaf in it. Being a fathead (and having read - or misread - that a 'proper' falling leaf is a series of incipient spins in opposite directions) I tried my own interpretaton of the manoeuvre...
Scary? No, man - those pants were always that colour.
The point is, I think, that people will always do stupid things sooner or later and that is when it is very useful to know 1) what might happen and 2) how to get out of it.
In my case, I had at least done a series of demonstrated spins in K-13 gliders and, although it had been dropped from the PPL syllabus by the time I came to power flying, several (much more violent feeling) spins in C150/152s.
The lessons on spin avoidance might not quite have percolated through this one skull - but the recovery actions came straight back.
