Serious Question Concerning Monkey Bars.

Today, I was at an exercise park and went on the monkey bars twice. I slipped and my skin actually tore on my palm. Has this happened to anyone else? Is there something that, somehow, I'm missing about how to climb on monkey bars?

    monkey bars are notorius for causing injuries to the hands. like leakewh said, grip and swing, and even then you arent always going to get it right, and you may fall and skin your knees, you may rip the skin on your hand, you will probably get blisters that hurt like hell. but if you REALLY want to climb on the monkey bars and have fun, you gotta know that as time goes on you'll get better at it. when i was little i used to be afraid of them....until i kept practicing and practicing, at night when i was there with my parents until i finally didnt fall anymore or look stupid in front of the other kids (yes this was elementary school for fat little insecure me XD) and i got AWESOME at the monkey bars. practice. thats all it takes.
