Crazy stuff you did when you were a kid
-
I was quite tame compared to you lot but some stuff that comes to mind;
Age 8, scout camp: We had a butane stove that wouldn't light so we figured the gas cylinder might be empty. I tested it by holding a lit match to the cylinder tap and turned it expecting the flame to get a bit bigger if there was any gas left. Impressively the whole gas cylinder caught alight and started rolling around. It came to rest at the side of our tent which caught alight too.
Teenage highlights;
Regularly used to climb a tree in order to jump over a large barbed wire fence that seperated us from the posh girls school.
We did climbing and abseiling at school which was foolish on the schools part as my friends and I used to do "homework". Freestyle quarry climbing was always quite popular.
Various painful bicycle accidents, often as a result of drinking beer and then holding onto a motorbike to pick up speed...
Starting fires. Small rural bonfires that used to suddenly set fire to everything around them. We were experts at beating out fires with blankets.
