Stuck a metal fork in an outlet when I was like 6 or 7 years old. I knew I would get shocked but, Lordy, not by that much. No injury or burns. Just, well, shocked by it all. :shock:
 
I'd have to say it's one of two things, but I can't decide which was crazier.

Once I got so drunk I couldn't walk over a speed bump and had to crawl around it. Had a 90 y/o man help me up the stairs to my apartment. Had to work at the bank the next day and the construction guys came in to cash their paychecks and asked a co-worker of mine where I was and she told them I was "paying reverence to the porcelain alter". :giggle:

Other time I was so drunk at the bar while Mickey Gilley was there, that I got up on the rails around the stage and danced on the rails. Passed out before getting to my car and a friend took me home to her house to sober up. Got my car back next day. :eek3:

Needless to say - I no longer drink anything alcoholic.
 
I jumped off the 90 feet cliff into the water a couple times. Man, it was fun but painful.
 
Played a Halloween prank on an old grouchy neighbor...my brothers, sisters & I poured ketchup, mustard, mayonnaise and basically about anything we could find onto his car....we even got several Kotex pads, poured ketchup & hot sauce on them and stuck them under his windshield wipers....used red lipstick and wrote on his windows..."Sucker"!....Jeez!...It was a mess! But we were suspected but not caught!...Oh yeah....eggs, too!

My brother did that when he was about 6.. back then we had the fuse box instead of breaker box.. The screw in kind. I think he blew out all the fuses in the house. He was not burnt or electrocuted, boy did my momma tan his hide after that.


craziest thing I ever done? :hmm:

I managed to hang my self on the swing that was on our porch, by standing on it letting it spin the rope wrapped around my neck. I was blue and somehow the rope broke, fell forward hit my forehead.

Luckily, I was fine after a hospital visit.


I was maybe about 5 or 6 years old.
 
I started a fire in the fireplace to roast marshmallows when I was about 11 and my parents left the house.

I didn't know about fireplace dampers and that they needed to be open when a fire was going. Needless to say , there was a lot of smoke in the house, I didn't know how to fix it, and my parents were furious.

Good memories. :)
 
I'm told that I ate my mother's makeup and my parents took me to the hospital when I was 3 years old to get my stomach pumped out. I have no memory of this.

I used to poke outlets when I was little and stopped doing it when I got a shock one day when I was 3.

Once I decided to wax the cats with car wax when I was seven. I also remember using motor oil on the cats as well.

When I was in my 20s and at Gally, I got so drunk that I ended up seeing double.
 
To refill a waterbowl without a hook.

Who knew a 15 pounds boa launching itself at you could be so painful. Bite didn't hurt, it's the impact of the weight against my nose.

Not the dumbest thing I have done, but it's the only thing I can think of right now.
 
More crazy things I did as a kid: I remember trying to copy what my brother did. He had my little sister and me help him make a paper rocket and he told us that when we finished it, we would see it shoot up and hit the roof of the garage. he filled it up with gas and set it on fire. It never took off but just went up in flames.


I wanted to do what he did so I went to the garage and got tons of bricks. My big sister was watching me thru the play room window as she practiced playing the clairinet. She didn't say anything till I dragged a can of gasoline and put it beside a pile of bricks.

My sister shouted me out of my experiment. :giggle:
 
I went hiking in Scotland - with a tent from a thrift store without a compass - or a male.... I didn't make it very far because there was no hiking path. l got lost 1/2 up the mountain and some Norwegian guy pointed the way off the mountain and I snuck into a hostel for the night. I don't hike alone anymore.

In undergrad, I climbed some buildings through air ducts and climbing gear - but nothing completely irrational and unsafe.

Explain how a 15 lb boa ended up on your face?!
 
I used to ride bulls in rodeos. Yee haw!!

But, the absolute .... silliest thing .... I have ever done cracks me up every time I think about it.

One of my best friends in high school and I were goofing off one day near his house. We were fishing in a creek near a golf course. He looked at me and asked "Hey ... want to see something hilarious?"

I said sure. So, he darted off in the woods and told me to follow him. We came up on a fairway on the golf course and he told me to stay back and hidden. He started to explain to me that I was about to see people making the funniest facial expressions I would ever see them make in my life.

He waited and waited .... finally, a group of about 4 golfers came up to tee off a ways down the fairway and off in a distance. They all hit their golf balls close to where he was waiting ..... patiently .... in the woods. As soon as the last golfer hit the ball, my friend ran as fast as he could out to the fairway, scooped up their golf balls and threw them back at the golfers.

He was right .... their facial expressions were absolutely hysterical .... :laugh2:

Now he is 82nd Airborne .... Hoo effing Rah!
 
Once I got drunk and decided to light up a cigarette and I threw the lit match into the trash! You can bet I put it out fast! :eek:
