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.

Yep. USian public school, middle school in the early 90's. I think I was.. 12 or 13. Never managed it because I had zero upper arm strength so I couldn't even get my feet onto the knot on the bottom.
