royal bumps

royal bumps
A ritual of two or more persons holding another person by the arms and legs, face up, while bumping them repeatedly on the floor. In modern times it is a lighthearted affair, generally performed only on a young persons birthday with the number of bumps corresponding to the persons age in years. Historically it was a hazing.
