Katy: Lift me up.
Adam: Okay.
Katy: Wow. It's like we're at the North Pole!
Adam: Ha ha! Keep your eyes peeled for elves.
"Creeeak pop!"
Katy: That was your back, wasn't it?
Adam: Will this still be a magical memory if I start screaming?
Lifting sideways like that and with his arms at shoulder level, it’s no wonder his back gave out. He should have clasped each elbow with the opposite hand, with his arms straight like the chains on a swing. then had Katy sit on his crossed arms, then lift with his legs, not his back. Or make a set of stairs, either way.
I had my 1 year old at the hospital for some tests, and he was riding on my shoulders. When I went to put him down, something in my back popped, and i was on the floor, writhing in pain. The nurse came out and asked if I was OK, and I looked up at her and said “I’ve fallen, and I can’t get up”. After she stopped laughing, the called the guys up from the emergency room to get me.

False alarm… it was the elastic waistband in his underwear. Don’t ask how I know.

This magic moment, so different and so new
Was like any other until my back blew
And when it happened, it took me by surprise
I knew that I’d scream, I felt like I had died

Screaming either ruins or enhances a magical memory.

Sure! It’ll still be a magical memory if you do all your cursing in Elvish…
