Completely insane stuff you did as a kid...

And I'm not even talking about stuff you even thought was insane at the time. I'm just talking about general "I'm a kid, I'm going to live forever and I'm indestructable" kind of stuff. For instance...

I used to eat 14 Taco Bell tacos for one dinner on a routine basis back when I was in highschool. I look back on that and I wonder how I even lived! :p This was coming off of a 4 hamburger lunch no less... And I still weighed 158 through it all.
:bang:

We also used to have a game in gradeschool were the object was to ride your bike on the street and knock other people off of their bikes by side swiping them. And this was the 80's where nobody wore a helmet. Seemed like a good idea at the time I guess. :p

So let's here some storys. What did you guys used to do that you look back on and think "why/how the hell did I do that? I must have been insane."

I beat up a kid with polio in the 3rd grade, does that count?

Behind my friends house was this ditch that was made by the run off after winter from this farm accross the road. And during the sprine me and my friend would spend quite a bit of time building damns and such, digging holes, whatever it all involved dirty water. But the most dangerous aspect was right where it all poured in from these two big metal tubes it made these big holes, and it revealed a black underground power line. We would be stanting right next to it jamming sholves into the ground, picks and stuff to make the holes bigger. Nothing safer than sharp objects near power lines.

We also jumped off trampolines trying to land in some of the trees near them, 98% of the time it resulted is very hard falls, or hitting your face on a branch and such. Not to mention you would be like 15 (thanks to power jumps, these require two people)feet in the air, and your 13 years old.

I wish I was 13 again, sigh.

I restricted myself to peeing only once a day.

We used to play war, and shoot each other with pellet guns.

When the pellet guns ran out of ammo, we would throw rocks.

Ah to be young again.

I remember when I was a kid, like 10, and finding a playboy that some teenagers had left in a field (empty beer cans, etc) made me feel like Indiana Jones.

You that grew up on the Internet have been robbed of this life changing and satisfying event, and I pity you.

Anyone Remember the game called "Circle jerk"?

Do you play that one with a Catholic Priest?

Naw I seen some dudes do it, I wasn't participating just
watching...

Like icepick, we played war. We used to throw what ever we could at each other. I once copped a branch the size of my arm to the back.


We also made a bumch of traps in our front garden and called it "trap world", and we made our next door neighbour walk through it. one of the "traps" was getting him to let us hit him with a plastic bag of grass. a big rock was hidden in it though.
