  • When I was eight, I stole a GAT air pistol belonging to the son of one of my parents' friends. Although it wasn't loaded, I put it to my little sister's temple and pulled the trigger. For those of you unfamiliar with early eighties air pistols, the GAT used a design where the heavy metal barrel pops out with considerable force to fire the pellet.

    She still bears the scar and the grudge...

  • 1 - got stuck in a sewer
    2 - ate shellfish soup (something I am allergic to) up a mountain in Peru

  • two i can think of:

    punched through the car window of someone in my college class (he was being a cunt though and i paid him back a bit later) waste of my money and time. Only good thing about that was the punch hit him in the face as well :D

    First night out ever (a couple of years ago) me and some mates sneaked into a few clubs i drank about 30+ drinks worst hangover ever and spent shitloads of cash stoked :(

  • Up in the mountains, got really trashed at lunch time, decided to hit a red run at 35mph+ on my snowboard seemed like a good idea at the time, hit some massive mogul that I probably would have dealt with just fine had I been sober, resulted in catching my toe edge and face planting quite violently.
    I knocked myself out cold for a few minutes, woke up with blood streaming out of my nose, a numb face, and some pretty heavy concussion that really messed me up for the rest of the day.

  • Drank 15 cans of red bull in a row to see what would happen.....cue biggest caffeine high of my life, followed by some hyperventilation which required the use of a paper bag, and me awake for 24 hours afterwards.

  • These are the most stupid things you've ever done?! Jeez.

    I hotwired a tractor and then crashed it.

    Reminds me of the time we broke into this building site when we were young and hotwired that thing they use to smash down buildings with the big ball. Managed to get the thing up and swinging, but we couldn't get the thing down or stop it so we bailed out and ran off.

    Thats far from the stupidest thing I have ever done though

  • Overshot a set of stairs on my bmx and rode through a massive glass window....
    and into a library.

  • Making a recording of me and my little brother going "Help! Mom, help! He's gonna get us! Help!", hiding in my closet and playing it when we heard her come home. Terrible!

  • ^ done the caffeine tip, although id already been out all night on uppers, got to about 8 in the morning and all of a sudden eating an entire pack of Pro-Plus seemed like a good idea. it wasnt. I thought i was going to have a heart attck. have never felt so ill in my life. ah good old misguided youth.

    I've done something similar. Was doing a wallride on an office building, and the bit I was wallriding was above some angled windows that gave light to the basement. My back wheel slipped on the wallride, and smashed the window.

  • I was once riding down the Black Mountain, Brecon Beacons, at bout 60kph and noticed my bar end cap was loose

    Aged about 8 I thought it would be a really good idea to run down the side of hay bluff... I ran about 100 yards flew 600 and faceplanted in a bog at the bottom. Never run so fast before or after.

    Shooting downhill after college into town in the middle of the road, passing stationary traffic on the left in the rain just after I got my fixie, failed to notice someone indicating right. They pulled out, I missed them and swerved into the back of a lorry instead. Somehow got away with just tearing my shoulder.

  • Went drinking moonshine in a shack in the backstreets of Delhi with a bunch of weird locals.
    Somehow I had still a wallet, eyesight and a life the next day.

  • When I was about 9 or 10 I had this little TV in my room, as I had whooping cough over the summer and was confined indoors (luckily the olympics were on) Anyway the TV had little push in buttons to change the channels, each one popped out as you pressed another one. I wondered what would happen if I pushed all the buttons in at the same time, I did - couldnt change the channel from BBC2 and my mum had to get the man from Multi-Broadcast (the TV was rented) to come out and fix it.
    My mum was furious, the TV man however thought it was hilairious.

    I'm sure I've done worse, but thats one that sticks in the mind.

    Class.

    I had a fight with my friend at the back of a church once. During a service. We were out the back messing around. I pushed him, he tripped and put his head straight through a big stained glass window. I think we were the first people ever to be thrown out and barred from a church. My parents were not happy. I did warn them though. That was the last time I ever went into a church, except for weddings and funerals.

  • There are too many stupid things to list, I shouldn't still be alive.
    but, without these experience I would not be the person that I am today.

  • Making a recording of me and my little brother going "Help! Mom, help! He's gonna get us! Help!", hiding in my closet and playing it when we heard her come home. Terrible!

    Definitely the most cruel thing I've ever heard! Evil kids.

    Haha I did something similarly offensive in high school, I went to a jewish school, and in RE lessons the rabbi's used to get a torah out on the main table at the front, I started having a play fight with my mate and it got semi-serious after he winded me, I then without thinking threw him across a desk and onto the Torah, I don't think we helped our case by bursting into laughter right after I did it, needless to say our parents got called in and we almost got chucked out.

    Running down big hills/mountains is never a good idea...i made the same mistake in Wales on a geography field trip...only took about 4 steps before i was running faster than the billion dollar man....tried desperately to dig my feet in sideways....eventually managed to slow down to an almost stop only to have my friend who made the same mistake plough into me from behind and send me running off down the hill again...thought i was gonna actually die :)

  • I lost my beautiful girlfriend ...:(

  • Once.. when I was too young to know better..

    I drank a light beer.

    I have a similar story.
    Me and a friend had a few drinks saw a nice potential to carve. so set off doing that thing where skiers ski directly across one anothers paths really close to each other...
    well it turns out at the beginning of this you're supposed to have an idea of who goes uphill and who goes downhill.
    We did quite well untill we'd gotten some good speed up. then we started the inward sweep and both realised that there was no chance of an avoidance, so tried to put the turn away from each other.
    I caught the underside of my friends ski on the top of mine as we started the edge change. which knocked him off.
    His ski took the back of my legs out, luckily only at the boot level as it left a huge gash on the plastic.
    We proceeded down the slope, by the end of it I had one boot on, no hat, goggles, gloves or poles, and was a bit dazed.
    My friend had to be taken off the mountain by ski patrol.

  • Golf course, ford fiesa and lots of under age drinking.

    you are a lair. i don't believe you would be that stupid

    This post wins. Hippy you are a moron.

  • Putting on some old skool offspring choons at what used to be known as playstation skatepark back in the day, and then attempting to gap a long box into a rail on the other side, I think the music got me too hyped up, because I went way too fast, overshot the whole thing and nosedived into the ground about 4 ft in front of the rail, from about 7 ft up in the air.

    Total damage to the bike:
    Shattered front hub and tacoed rim
    Tacoed rear wheel and bent axle (bike bounced and flew quite far/high)
    Bent rear dropout
    Totalled saddle
    Twisted bars

    Total damage to me:
    Fractured shoulder blade
    Strained tendons
    Hametoma on/in my abdomen
    Shredded skin all over my hands
    Various bruising
    Nice little piece of flesh missing from my thumb
    Road rash on my elbow
    Sore ankle twisted/bruised

    Bizarrely/amazingly, I didn't hit my head (although I did have a helmet on), seems my shoulder took most of the impact.
