What are some of the More... Dangerous things you've done? have any stories you almost didn't live through in order to tell? Or just general daredevilness, such as expired food adventures. Share it all here.

    Hardees came out with this new Breakfast Burrito a while back, and since I had a coupon for one I tried it. I got very sick form it. <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    They sent me scads more of coupons for the same thing, so I tried it again. I got very sick from it.

    Hardee's Breakfast Burritos SUCK WIND!

    Who hasn't gotten up in the middle of the night to take a swig of milk from the carton when no one was looking? And found it to be SOUR .... yucko.

    My Mom, God rest her soul, used to have to hide Oreos from me. She was fast runnin' out of places though, cuz I <b>ALWAYS</b> found em. One weekend day for lunch I turned on the oven to pre-heat it, and it started smokin BAD. That was the last time she hid Oreos ...

    well usually kids give people money to eat things at school.. they mix their little food bits and make something foul... well i usually down it and get a few bucks out of it.. one time though they made this horrible toxic sludge... thought i was gonna die right there... all it was was blue gatorade, bbq sauce, school cheese, choco milk, and some of the blue slushy stuff.... almost puked though.. i guess thats as exciting as it gets with me...

    I hit the jetties once in an 18' boat at the wrong tide, and the waves were 25' to 30' high. When you are in the bottom of said swell it's VERY scarey.

    Daredevilish? Yeah I'd say so. Very scarey too...

    Well, the most dangerous thing I've ever done was jump across the road on my dirtbike going about 45-60mph and give it gas at the lip. Ive been riding all my life, and I knew better, but that stupid impule of 'go faster' ended me up in a cast for a few months. Lucky me, I managed to stay upright while I fell, or I could of ended up with broken bones elsewhere. I'm sure theres worse. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->


    On top of the 'dangerous' things, I have a friend at work that was trying to open one of the inktags that go on the clothes as anti-theft (without the clothes on it, of course) and thought they would make some horrable explosion since it said 'and can cause bodily harm' on the back of it. He put some bags over his hands and tried opening it. I was laughing my **** off at him cause it looked so silly, but they CAN stain your hands for a few weeks. While he was trying it, the phone he happened to be sitting down next to went off, and he jumped. This was the awesome funny part, he didnt jump all at once, he jumped in a kind of 'wave' motion. It had me laughing for a good few minuites <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Well, continue with the gorey dangerous stuff

    When I was around 12 or 13 I took a can of silver spray paint from my daddy's bike shop and painted up the town on Halloween. Buildings, federal mail boxes, NEW cars at dealers ... you name it.

    Now, the federal property was REALLY daredevil. I got caught, or rather coerced into confessing. Fortunately I was best friends with the mayor's son and got away with only having to clean it all up. <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Uh... where to start?

    - I fell off a carnival ride that was going at full speed about 60 meters above the ground
    - I got dragged by a bus because my bag got caught in the door as I was getting off and tangled around my neck (managed to stay on my feet the whole time somehow though :3 )
    - Choked on more pen-tops as a kid than I can count even now
    - Pulled a kettle full of scalding water over myself when I was a baby
    - Fell over while I had a fork in my mouth... enough said about that ¬.¬
    - Put my hand on the bottom of an iron while it was on
    - Set the dog on fire (it was an accident! I put him in cold water the minute I realised there was smoke coming from him @.@)
    - Drowned underwater to the point where I lost consciousness (stupid floats blocking the surface -.-)
    - Ran into the kitchen while my mum was taking a burning hot tray out of the oven at the right height to connect with my cheek
    - Walked the dog during a lightning storm... a bolt hit just a few hundred meters away and sent me and my friends running back home fast ^^;
    - Put a pair of scissors into a plug socket then a kitkat wrapper (silver foil) in the earth then hit them together with a plastic ruler (wasn't just me ok? It was a bunch of us in school and we were bored :s ).
    - Slept through a housefire
    - Ran <b>into</b> a moving car... if it'd been going any slower it would've hit me instead of the other way round. I bumped into it from the side and got spun like a top o.@
    - Had a drawing pin go right into my kneecap (an accident that ended with me screaming and trying to take my 'pinned on' jeans off in hysteria when I realised I couldn't get the thing out with my hands while 2 'friends' sat and howled with laughter ¬.¬)
    - Jumped off a 6 foot tall obstacle and my left foot half-landed on the edge of a raised tile (somewhat recent one and as far as the hospital is concerned there's nothing broken luckily)
    - Fell down the stairs. A few times. Not on the same day. Stop looking at me like that -.-


    Oh and for the record, after all this? Not a single visible scar or anything... except maybe when I catch a lot of sun the places that got scalded when I was super-lil by the kettle get freckles :o

    The worst that's really happened to me is more or less melting all the skin on my hand into one big smooth.. smooth skin-melted thing.

    Note to the kids reading this, DONT TOUCH EXPOSED LAWNMOWER ENGINES.

    Not many years ago while running the bridges downtown with my running buddies, we noticed a big black cloud heading down the St. Johns River heading right for us. They wimped out on me, fearful of the storm that was about to drench us, and decided to finish their mileage inside a huge parking garage.

    I trekked up the bridge alone, all the while keeping my eye on that big black cloud that loomed even closer now. I just KNEW I could make it across the bridge before the storm struck ...

    As I crested the bridge it struck. Here I was at the very TOP of this huge **** bridge and the bottom fell out. But wait, it gets worse .... ... .. .

    Golfball size hail began to beat upon my head and shoulders profusely. No where to run, no where to hide, no shelter nearby. I had to get my dumb **** off that bridge and quick. But it was a longggggggggg way to the bottom.

    I got bruised up. Badly. My running friends made fun of me. A lot... <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    oh don't worry neon... those are just the highlights :3
    There's tons more like the time I took a corner waaaaaaay too fast on my bike and knowing I wouldn't make it jumped off the back. Funny how momentum works; I ended up getting bonked on the nose by the backwheel as I cartwheeled into the rear of my crashed bike then the friend who was cycling with me screamed as we both realised I'd somehow not just crashed but landed on a wasps nest ^^;

    Like all my adventures I miraculously didn't really get seriously hurt; I didn't get stung somehow and despite taking a pretty hard hit to the nose nothing was actually damaged. I just had to put up with a numb face for the day and the dull throb of lots of lil bruises :p

    There was also the time I got stung on the lip and we found out I was allergic to whatever it'd been. My breath was ragged and my eyes watered so much I couldn't see by the time the doctor got there.
    To this day I still don't know if it was a wasp or bee that got me :o

    I tried to jump from my house's rooftop to that of my neighbor's two years ago. I also live in the suburbs, so the houses aren't exactly packed close together. I didn't even come within two yards of the roof.
  • GeminosityGeminosity :3 Join Date: 2003-09-08 Member: 20667Members
    lol, ok so it was only probably about 100 feet, it was so long ago and I was so young it's hard to remember the scale correctly really. All I know is if you jumped from it you'd end up with your spine sticking through the top of your head :3

    It would've been fatal if the person I'd been riding with hadn't grabbed my top and clung on till the ride had finished.
    It's a weird experience flying about like that being slowly strangled by the top that's also the only thing keeping you alive. I could feel the fibers starting to break just as the ride started to finally slow down.

    You'd think the guys operating the stupid thing would've heard 2 people screaming like that but nooooooooooo -.-

    gem.. you seem like one of those babies that would end up suffocating themselves.. i guess you just got lucky...

    another thing i did which left the biggest scar on my body is one time when i was out with some friends we were kicking this nerf ball around that was on fire.. we eventually got 2 balls going and while i was paying attention to one the other ball came flying at me.. i blocked it with my arm but the problem with that was it STUCK to my arm.. while on fire... i shook it off and it took quite a bit of skin with it, and at the same time left quite a bit of flaming plastic... oh well it looks badass....

    my brother always got himself into trouble though.. one time he was riding a three wheeled atv around some quonsets and he hit a rock and lost control... well the cows were chillaxing off on the side in their barbed wire fence... he swerved into the fence and got dragged 15 or so feet along the fence... needless to say he got pretty tore up..

    I fell down the stairs and landed with a door (which wasn't in place, it was leaning against a wall) going into my pocket and scratching (not particularly dangerous or deep, but I still have a scar) about 1ft up my inside leg.

    That in itself isn't so bad, but it stops about 1cm before the part where my scrotum joins onto the rest of me. Because it was still bleeding at the time I took my pants off to check, I honest to god thought I'd pretty much cut my balls off <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    As for me, drinking 3-day year old tea that was left out in the open (aka out of fridge, without a lid). Pathetic, yes, but hurts less than spoiled milk. Needless to say, I seem to drink a lot of spoiled fluids.
