Subject: what's the craziest thing you've ever done?
Mine would have to be either skinny dipping or taking all my food out of my fridge and climbing inside (at the age of 20, not 5 as you might think!).
Subject: Re: what's the craziest thing you've ever done?
Well, tonight I'm going to try to break my all-time record of listening to "Bennie and the Jets" seventeen times in a row.
Yeah, I can't think of anything good right now.
Subject: Re: what's the craziest thing you've ever done?
hmmm, probably intentionally ordered a big mac meal from wendy's as a joke, and then proceeded to demand it when they mentioned they didnt have it. It was all videotaped.
Subject: Re: what's the craziest thing you've ever done?
Oh wait, I know the craziest thing I've ever done. It was when I forgot to add water to that Ragu Pasta stuff (exact same thing as Easy Mac). I don't exactly know how that happened, but the worst part is, I spent like an hour trying to figure out what I did wrong. I saw all these black noodles and smelled smoke, and, that's right, I couldn't figure out what I did wrong. This happened last year.
The second craziest/flat out stupidest thing I've ever done would be when I was coloring a poster for American History class of the Lewis and Clark Expedition. I drew a map of the United States (which looked decent) and was coloring the ocean (obviously not paying attention) when my history teacher pointed out to me that I had colored water all around the United States, making it an island. I must have totally forgotten about Mexico and Canada. This happened last week.
Folks, I am not usually this big of an idiot.
Subject: Re: what's the craziest thing you've ever done?
Hmm... Craziest thing I ever did... Well, here's a few:
Learning to speak Klingon and speaking completely in Klingon for the whole day...
...Doing an extremely LOUDand extremely high-pitched Justin Timberlake impression in the middle of English class. (Not as high-pitched as the original though)...
...Making beer-flavoured ice lollies and eating six of them...
...Setting fire to some potato cakes in H.E. (although my friend Chris made a pizza in the shape of Osama bin Laden's head, which was crazier)...
...Watching Balamory every day in the holidays...
...Pretending my sister was my girlfriend and scaring all my friends.
I dunno which of those is the craziest.

Ah! These two are the craziest (though I liked the Ossama Bin Laden Pizza head idea). Is that the one where the song goes 'What's the story, Balamory?' If so, that inventor in a kilt called Archie is a right wierdo.
That postman looks like something out of a 'Noddy' book as well. ;D
As for pretending your sister is your girlfriend - Crazy stuff!!
Subject: Re: what's the craziest thing you've ever done?
Hmm! I do stupid things I'm not sure about crazy things . . .
For a bet I climbed out of a first floor school window.
Ate a combination of rice and tomato soup on one occassion (yuck).
Dived into a kiddies ball pool at an adventure park (this year).
Do stupid Dick van Dyke 'Me ol' Bamboo' style dancing when I get happy (this is a frighteningly regular thing).

Mine would probably be going to a Black Tie party in er.. a black tie
Or maybe walking along a public footpath singing the Red Flag - this might not seem crazy, but it was midnight, and the footpath in question runs through the middle of the USAF base at Daws Hill: we were being shadowed by ModPlod on the other side of the fence, so we kept turning round and back just to make them turn the car round ;-)

Subject: Re: what's the craziest thing you've ever done?
Here's a couple of the tamer ones:
Some friends and I decided to go to Dennys at 1:00 a.m. in our pajamas... I wore a black satin night shirt with big gorilla slippers... being all female, we caused quite a stir, especially my roommate who wore a negligee that barely covered anything...
One St. Patrick's day my best friend and I kissed almost every man in the Cats Eye Pub in Fells Point in Balto. And it was a full house that night, groping room only. We also french kissed each other on a dare.
Subject: Re: what's the craziest thing you've ever done?
Crikey - I dont think I could fit them all in in this entire forum !!!!!
Swimming nude on the roof of the Sydney Hilton beneath the revolving restaurant in Centrepoint Tower bout ten years ago.
Watching Rocky Horror Picture Show every night for a year to get into Guiness Book of Records in the mid 80's.
Wrapping a strangers entire house in toilet paper and filling all the roses with talc in the 80's.
Going to a bottle shop while dressed as a fairy - complete with sparkly magical wand in the 90's.
Jumping out of a plane with my brother, uncle, and grandfather in 95.
Marrying a practical stranger in a foreign country in the 80's.
Deciding at San Francisco airport whether I would fly to Australia or England - and choosing England and flying there that day with less that $50 in my pocket and no visa in the 80's.
Following a spunky rock star all over Australia last year.
Flying in a helicopter piloted by Prince Charles when I was 8.

Jumped from the tenth step... nearly made it, too...
Subject: Re: what's the craziest thing you've ever done?
In tenth grade, we were all at one of my friends houses, and one of my friends went into the bathroom with a playboy......we knew what he was doing, and the 5 of us, barged open the door while he was in the act......I regret this one......... ::) :P
In 12th grade, after the prom we went to Wildwood, NJ, and me and another guy kinda abandonded one of my good friends in the amusment park, while he was more drunk than I have ever seen him......he eventully found his way back, and literally attacked the other guy in front of the motel
Ill think of more later
Subject: Re: what's the craziest thing you've ever done?
i'm not sure if i should repeat the entire thing...all i'm saying is vanilla extract, lime/lemon extract, and a lighter. :o (nothing was broken or burned and no one got wasted, but it was a pretty funny video...)
my friend and i also dared a guy to take off his pants while standing on a crowded sidewalk after school...we stopped him after he took his belt off though.
this same friend (mentioned in the above two) and i also waved to complete strangers while driving...we got some hot guys to wave back and forth two us, but some weird guys spat at us.
Subject: Re: what's the craziest thing you've ever done?
Hmm, run up and kick a metel door open in school in front of a teacher :o :o, oh man, that was a fun day.
A friend of mine once dared another friend to, while coming back from lunch, smack the back bumper of every car that passed, and then proceed to roll in the street behind it as of if he was hit. One time though, he did it to a car with a costodiant in it, and when he rounded the corner with us towards the school, a security guard asked him away and made him apoligize to the costodiant. We were all standing a few feet away laughing at him. He'll never do that again...
but the craziest thing Ive ever done, really is...
last year, myself and a group of friends would always go to the weight room in the school whenever it was open(which was after school usually), and work out. I found myself to be notorious on a machine where you lie on your back and push up a bar with your legs, you'd put weights on this bar also, and I was able to do this with all of the 45lb(the heaviest) weights on the bar at the time. So one day, these two huge seniors come in and proceed to load up this machine with all the 45 lb weights. A crowd formed aroudn this machine as the first kid went down to attempt this, but was unable to lift it. A seccond kid followed, and got it barely, followed by another who couldn't do it. Then I proceeded to go down and lift it, and to the astonishment of everyone around, I lifted it, and did ten reps with it. Then my friend Sean yells, "Hey Florio, do it with one leg!" So then I pulled a muscle, and wound up limping around everywhere I went. It wasn't fun. But at least for the rest of the school year, until my leg felt better, I was able to build up my upper body better than before, so it worked out ok.

ooo, I once did something like this, I believe there were 12 steps, I made it, then fell, then proceeded to roll on the ground, then made it to my feet, fell again because my ankles hurt, and lied there for a few secconds until I had strength again. And worst of all, a teacher saw it all :o, but she said nothing.

I can't make easy mac, I think they should call it hard mac. Every time I try to make it I put the cheese in first, even though it says not to, I don't think they label those packets good enough.
I've done so many crazy things that I don't know which is the craziest. If I say some of the stuff i've done everyone on here will think i'm insane, good times though.
Subject: Re: what's the craziest thing you've ever done?
Ok, I got a record for stupidity here...
myself and my friend Larry are walking on the side of the school, now, every Friday, the morning announcements are video taped and shown on all the tv's in the school, like a news show, and its filmed in a little room on the first floor. So, we're walking, and theres this girl on a track team I believe, talking to someone through the window, then she started to walk away. So out of nowhere, Larry says, "hey, a-hole!" She turned around, and he said, "heh! You looked!" And started cracking up. So then I glanced to the left to find that, it had all been video taped for the video announcements tomarow morning, and the girl was talking into the camera. Id hate to be him if the entire school sees this tomarow seccond period. Lol.

Purely and simply...skateboarding...
It went like this...when skateboards were first popular here (mid-70's, I think), a crowd of us would, as kids do, try all kinds of outrageous stunts with these oversized roller-skates...
This was all done before anyone had deemed it a health hazard and insisted you wore helmets, pads, and the like...
So, one Sunday we find ourselves at Crystal Palace park in South London, as we have heard there is a mighty big f/o tarmac slope there...which there was...extremely big...
We've all congregated at the top of said slope and, peering down with the aid of oxygen masks, have made slight brown tinges in our underwear...for the next several minutes, the conversation went thus...
"You going...?"
"After you..."
"I'll go after so-and-so goes..." and so on...
After much 'umming' and 'aahing', I decide to take the bull by the horns...with a surge of adrenaline (and stupidity), I suddenly launch myself off this near-vertical slope...the last thing I remember was everyone staring open-mouthed...this was the last bloke they'd expect to take off first...!
Well, there was no going back now...
Unfortunately, at the very bottom of the slope, the pathway forked off into two different directions...and in the middle was a concrete/metal advertising board (you can probably tell what's coming up...)
Now, I've seen this object approaching me at a frightening rate of knots...I'm not sure what flashed through my mind at that exact moment, but it certainly wasn't along the lines of...
1. Jump off the skateboard onto the soft grass verge, or
2. Stay on skateboard and deftly manoeuvre either left or right, thus missing object
It was more a case of...blind panic, whole body paralysed, keep your eyes shut and it might not hurt...
WALLOP! Straight into it! Breaking several bones and various body parts near-lacerated by the council's finest concrete...!
However, the body soon recuperated...as did the mind...I never went near a skateboard again from that day...!

When I was 22 a friend of mine and I got refused entry into a club here in Montreal because the bouncer didn't think we were dressed well enough. My friend head butted him in the face and after he fell down I proceeded to strip him naked.
When I was the same age I crossed the Champlain bridge (the longest bridge in Montreal that crosses the St. Lawrence river) on my hands.
But the craziest thing that I ever did was give my heart to my girlfriend. And after five years of living together, she threw it on the ground and took a dump on it.

Subject: Re: what's the craziest thing you've ever done?
Well... Hamburger Helper is probably very nutritious compared to Easy Mac. All it is is noodles, cheese sauce, and water. Very simple to make (well... ::)); you just pour the noodles and water into a bowl, and stir the sauce in after ya make it. Yeah.

Have you ever seen those kids' toys that are like a little man made of sticky material? The idea is to throw them at the wall and they stick, then they slowly flop down the wall to the floor.
Well a few years ago I was out in town and very drunk. For some reason I decided it would be a good idea to emulate one of these "sticky men" against the plate glass window of a Chinese restaurant. I took a long run up from across the road then launched myself flat against the window with my arms & legs splayed out. Then I slowly slipped down the window with my face pressed up against the glass.
The manager came charging outside & threatened me with the police but I went ahead & did it again...about 3 times...everyone inside was standing around looking at me, presumably thinking I was going to come crashing through the window. Then they sent out the Chinese chef from the kitchen with a dangerous looking meat cleaver...he waved it about in my face and, although drunk, I didn't stay around to argue.

I once boiled some eggs. I forgot all about them and went upstairs. I started hearing something and went downstairs to see what the noise was (I thought the cats were doing something). I found eggs popping everywhere. It was such a mess to clean up and the place smelled like burnt eggs for a long time. :P After that, whenever I put eggs on to boil, I also put on the timer. Learned my lesson. ;)

Have you ever seen those kids' toys that are like a little man made of sticky material? The idea is to throw them at the wall and they stick, then they slowly flop down the wall to the floor.
Well a few years ago I was out in town and very drunk. For some reason I decided it would be a good idea to emulate one of these "sticky men" against the plate glass window of a Chinese restaurant. I took a long run up from across the road then launched myself flat against the window with my arms & legs splayed out. Then I slowly slipped down the window with my face pressed up against the glass.

I once boiled some eggs. I forgot all about them and went upstairs. I started hearing something and went downstairs to see what the noise was (I thought the cats were doing something). I found eggs popping everywhere. It was such a mess to clean up and the place smelled like burnt eggs for a long time. :P After that, whenever I put eggs on to boil, I also put on the timer. Learned my lesson. ;)

this happened last night...
my friends and i were walking to walmart at about 8:00 at night, so it was already dark. we were in a shopping center, and because we are stupid, we were running in the middle of the aisles of the parking lot.
so then my friend and i have the brillant idea: why don't we race to walmart? so we starting sprinting down the sidewalk, in front of a lot of open stores with people watching us. i tripped, which caused me to slam into the front window of one of the stores. i kind of bounced off the glass and fell onto the concrete and slid at least half a foot.
all my friends come running over, trying really hard not to laugh (because i had just made an a$$ of myself in front of several people i didn't know ::)) and they helped me limp to walmart. i gave two of my friends $5 to buy me a box of band-aids, and my other friend and i went into the bathroom. i washed out my right elbow (which was now bleeding), except there were no paper towels, so i had to use toilet paper (:-X) to dry my elbow. my left knee (the same one i killed snowboarding last year) is also missing two or three layers of skin and it's a little swollen. amazingly, the knees of my jeans didn't rip.
the moral of the story: don't run.
edit: fixed grammar.

I've done it a few times.

I've done it in less than that, but to be fair, it was dark.

oh man...i tried running today during chemistry...i'm using an ice pack on my knee as i type... ::)
although, the nice burn on my arm is identical to the one ryan turner got on BLS, which amused all my friends endlessly. (and me too. :D)

It's funny how two of the craziest things that I've ever done both involved one thing-A Super Nintendo.
Incident #1: I got into an argument with my dad and in a fit of rage, I grabbed my SNES and proceeded to go upside his head with it. (yes I have issues)
Incident #2: I can't remember what game it was, but I was on the last board and was losing BADLY. I got so angry that I threw the SNES out of my 7th floor apartment window. I immediately felt sorry when I saw the gray mess splattered on the parking lot below.
I guess you could say that I had a bit of rage problem.. ;D
My third SNES has remained unscathed since 2002, but I just recently lost a PS2 control pad to one of my latest fits.(Gran Turismo, license tests! >:()

Why is it always books? I ran naked over the landing 'cause I needed to get a book from the shelf in the hall. I was seen by my mum's boyfriend. Luckily in was dark he didn't have his glasses on! I've never done it since.

many MANY years ago I was partying with some friends and decided to take this "short cut" through a field. in the dark we didn't see this large hole in the middle and drove right into it. then we had to find other drunk people to help us get the car out. what a bunch of morons we all were!
