As a kid, what's the craziest shit you ever did?

[Kaladin]

Not real proud of this, but in 8th grade (mid 90s)I found out you could go into dillards or penny's at gateway in Lincoln, grab like 20 items, try them on, then wear half of it out under my oversized hoodie and jeans, and no one noticed or seemed to care. I then started to sell the clothes to my friends for cheap, like $.50 on the dollar. All profit. Never got caught, but I eventually got a job and decided I liked having money without the risk of getting arrested.

I was more of a steal Playboy & Penthouse mags by stuffing them into the sleeve of my jacket kinda kid, lol.

One time when me and my brother were young we had a pretty good rain at the farm. It started off pretty innocent, tromping through the running water in our rain boots. But we just kept following all the water flowing through the cow lots into the pasture down to the creek. Well we thought it was a good idea to start swimming in the overflowing creek that was rushing from heavy rains. Not our smartest move.
PS. When dad found us and what we were doing he chewed our ass and chased us all the way back to the house on the 4 wheeler, as in pushing us like cattle as we tried to run in soaked clothes and rubber boots filled with water, that run was not very fun.

Had a cousin drown in the Papio creek because he thought it would be a good idea to kayak during a big storm.

Had some friends that did this pretty regularly. Also cologne and perfume back when they put full size bottles out for samples. @BigRed97

Started out as taking the .22 and spot light late at night to shoot rabbits. Turned into shooting outdoor lights. First in the country then in town.

Liquid drano bomb in a glass bottle that gave me stitches in my forehead and arm.

When the roads got icy enough tied a rope to the trailer hitch and skied with one of those round plastic sleds through downtown Yutan. 25-30 mph. Worst was hitting a dry spot.

Throwing empty beer bottles at cars going the opposite direction on Hwy 92.

So amazing we didn't hurt ourselves worse or someone else.

Not me but cousins kid drowned a couple of years ago in the Missouri. Him and his buddies would get their flat bottom boat going as fast as it could go and then throw the anchor out the side of the boat. Obviously the boat sank and him and his buddy swam for the shore. Buddy made it. Cousins kid did not. Might have been fine if it was July. Problem was it was May and the water was pretty cold.

Tipped over tractors three different times between the ages of 12-15. My dad was not impressed…….😠

Did that once when I ran out of gas in the country. Beat walking until we tipped it.

Was that back in the earl/mid 2000's? If so I think I remember hearing that on the news.

I have learned from this thread that we are all either carbon copies of one another, or we are all carbon copies of each other’s best friends.

 

[God is a Husker]

I banged my High School GF in 10 different rooms/places inside of or high school.

Didn’t even think about cameras or how big of trouble we would get in if caught.

We also banged in a ton of random places around town. Ex: Courthouse, old Library, new Library, Elks Club, Runza Bathroom, baseball fields, Pamida bathroom, etc etc

I knew this crazy fucker in high school who would put 2x4s with nails on the highway and wait for people to run over them. He would then go up to the vehicle and offer help for money. The one time a whole family rolled their van. Luckily no one got killed. He also stole a combine one night and was driving it all over before he buried it in a pond. The last time I ever hung out with him the cops about charged us with terroristic threats and a felony on bashing mailboxes.

Ive got way crazier but the most innocent harmless prank is:

Got hammered one night with a few other buddies when we were seniors about 3 weeks before graduation and rearranged a few orange construction cones/barrels and detour signs that sent US hwy 77 traffic down a gravel road that turned to dirt after the first mile. My dad farmed some ground with a little cluster of timber in it about a quarter mile away from where the gravel ended so we parked there continued to drink and just watch and laugh.

.After the first couple of semis went down that road it turned into a real cluster fuck quick. First one tried backing around the corner to turn around and dropped both trailer axles off the culvert and had it blocked. We had to get home before the wreckers and law showed up to unfuck that rig and get everyone else turned around

 

[Jim14510]

wtf

Yeah that was fucked up. Usually missed. Does that make it better?
