People Are Sharing Dumb Things They Did As Kids And It’s Amazing That Some Of Them Are Still Alive
Kids can find some incredibly random things to do! Which, when you think about it, isn't such a bad thing. Experience is the greatest teacher of all, and getting yourself into sticky situations when young can give you a lesson in life that you will never forget. As long as your death wish lets you make it through to adulthood in one piece of course!
Twitter user @MotherOfDoggons asked people to share some of the stupid things they did as kids, and some of the real stories will make you wonder how these funny kids managed to survive this far. From starting fires and stabbing themselves for attention, to eating grass to prove that they are part horse, let's just hope that these crazy kids have learned from their hilariously stupid experiences. And if not then hey, at least they have funny things to tell. Scroll down below to check out the funniest tweets selected by Bored Panda, and share your own stories in the comments!

No you have it all wrong you sling the shampoo in the eyes of whom ever was making fun of you and then just like that it stops.
And she spent all day making snowmen before a nice snowman came to life and raised her as his own 😃
I've never been in snow. But i have to assume you were a competent skier? What is a diamond slope? Sounds shiny and fast.
I had a rough idea, so I looked it up: A 100% slope is a 45 degree angle. In general, beginner slopes (green circle) are between 6% and 25%. Intermediate slopes (blue square) are between 25% and 40%. Difficult slopes (black diamond) are 40% and up.

I did pretty much the same thing, but I was 18 and didn't know how to ski.
“But Doc! We dont have enough road to reach 88 mph!”

Were you in a cartoon so you confused those two? 😺 PepeLePew4...f4340a.jpg
I always loved that cartoon. Poor kitty. Pepe never figured it out.
Load More Replies...My grandmother heard her daughter squeal "Ooh, kittens!" Knowing that none of the barn cats was pregnant, grandma came outside to find my aunt Phyllis with her arms full of three baby skunks. She calmly convinced my aunt to put the kitties down and leave them alone, as they were very tiny and their mommy would be looking for them.
If your mom hadn't freaked out the skunk would not've sprayed. You could've kept him for a pet.
When my youngest daughter was 2, I looked from the kitchen to the front door, saw her holding the front door open saying here kitty, kitty, got to the front door just in time to grab her and shut it as the skunk hit it and sprayed the front porch, you could smell it on the concrete for a couple of years.
The boys would pull the pine tree saplings down and the girls would get on the tree and hold on. They would let the tree go! Depending on how big the sapling was depended on whether you got a ride when it flew up, or whether it slipped up and slung you 15 or so feet across the air until you landed on the ground. I took the big trip which knocked the breath out of me and scared me to death. Crazy kids! But we played outside all day.
I mixed soap with water to make "perfume" for my mum. Then I got a bit offended when she pretended to put it on her body but clearly didn't actually do it. I've later learned soap dries out your skin if you don't wash it off, but at that age I couldn't make sense of her behavior.
Once, as a child, I shoved a cookie into the CD drive of my computer. It may have been too soon to give me a computer...
If it tastes good you eat it when you're a kid. But put a delicious plate of streamed broccoli and it's the most disgusting thing they've ever seen.
Hahaha, I always got Play Dooh for Saint Nicolas at my school. My mother dreaded that time of year. Because for some (creative) reason I always smeared the stuff in the living room carpet. As I also loved to make drawings on the bottom of the plate that was our salon table, instead of using the blackboard. I probably found drawing while laying on the floor more relaxing. And drawing gnomes on (again) the carpet in our living room was also my speciality ( in all shades of pink & purple).
At least you proved your classroom has well working safety in its electric infrastructure....
I would say yes and no. Yes for not injuring and possibly even killing the kid, No for taking out the entire street.
Load More Replies...My mom says I did that with a fork. A wonder I'm still here today to tell about it.
Load More Replies...My sister did it with a hair pin, my mother told her not to or she will die, so she did it to prove her wrong. She got a shock and told my mum: I didnt die! It took my mum a moment to realize what she actually did.
So thankful for the safety design of UK sockets and tripping mechanisms.
You should be happy they weren't sewing scissors because otherwise you would have gotten electrocuted. (I mean, I can only assume they weren't)
An very young rebell. I wonder the what you came up with as a teenager or was your rebellious phase already over by then
My sister had the habit of breaking the legs on all of my dolls so, as a revenge, I used a permanent marker to make tattoos on all her dolls. Years later when she was like 15-16 years old and had a boyfriend, and I was maybe 9 or 10 and angry at her for some reason, I took a needle and poked holes in a bunch of condoms I found in her room. She saw the holes (fortunately before using them) and hit me several times in the head with a dinner plate til it broke. I don't remember what she had done to me to make me seek that revenge...
My brother used to do magic tricks by making beads and random stuff "disappear" up his nose. He was too young to tell anyone that he hadn't been able to retrieve one of the beads he had made disappear. Three weeks later he woke up on a Sunday morning unable to walk, seems to have become paralyzed overnight. It was a holiday weekend so my dad took him to hospital, 16 hours in hospital and they had no answers. Dad brought him home, mom & dad are devastated, because the hospital said without determining a cause, it could be permanent. Tuesday morning, call the pediatrician, take him right in before the office opens, first thing the doctor did was check his ears, then shined a light up his nose, called the nurse in and had my dad and the nurse hold him down while he removed the lost bead from his nose. The bead had caused an inner ear infection that left him with no sense of balance, so he couldn't walk, antibiotics for a week and he was back to walking, like nothing ever happened.
My nephew would stick rocks in his ears. He had to have them surgically removed twice. We would call him the rock monster, he hated it.
How did they allow this clearly dangerous child to be anywhere near a staple gun is the real question here
I would like to know if you have piercings and tattoos as an adult, or if you got enough from that time. =) It seems that you wanted it really bad, though, and I kind of hope you do have both! =)
i once put beads up my nose too, but i had to snot rockett those thing out before my mom woke up and they landed in he mouth and., i thought cool grown ups eat boogers too.
This is priceless!!! I've taken care of 10 year olds that have stuck things up their nose or in their ears...not too bright, if you're doing it at that age..
Don't feel bad. Where I work, someone left a spoon in their bowl and put it in the microwave and walked away. The results, a 10 floor tower evacuated because the alarm went off.
I worked in a building where the Fire Dept.showed up. Some dumbass burn't toast in a toaster and the Fire alarm went off. I'm lucky I didn't get fired.
Load More Replies...I did the same thing with a Wendy's wrapper.... But I definitely didn't tell anyone. That microwave lasted another 10 years.
Ive done this before :/ put my sandwich wrapped in tin foil inside the microwave and walked away then quickly ran back to take it out. Its like i wasnt thinking at the moment.
That was a long second.. Lucky it was only a turd and not an drowning incident.
Yeah, I was worried something worse was going to happen.
Load More Replies...Hope she didn't get abusive like the dad in Shine
Load More Replies...Probably would have been safer to leave the bath in the first place:)
Well considering the thing was already dead, I’d feel more sorry for the mom then the bird.
Load More Replies...I kept a dead sparrow in a box in my bedroom for weeks until our housekeeper complained to my parents that something stank in my room. They never asked me what it was. Just told me to get rid of it.
In 7th grade, we got to disect a frog in biology. still not sure WHY I did it, but I brought the innards & eyes home, wrapped in cellophane & put them in the fridge...where mom found them & almost passed out...I did NOT repeat this in 10th grade when we disected again. I turned out to be a (mostly) normal, successful & productive member of society!
As a kid my aunt stuffed a choc ice she got at school dinner time into her pocket so she could save it for later. She forgot about it until she got home and my Grandma asked her what she had for dinner.
I did this too hahaha everytime my parents had guests at our home. I went in my room took of my clothes and then I came in the living room where everyone was. yeah embarrassing
Now when I think about it.....Why did I do that??? xD
Load More Replies...OMG, my brother did that in elementary school! He's autistic. One day his teacher took the kids in her class to the bathroom and my bro took off all his clothes and went streaking down the hall and the teacher couldn't catch him. She and the principal and two other teachers were trying to catch him and finally they came to me in class and asked me to help. It ultimately didn't matter since a teacher finally caught him without my help.
Well, wearing clothes when you're not cold and not around sharp rocks or stinging plants, is completely unnatural and kinda ridiculous if you think about it. So it's totally natural for little kids to take their clothes off when they're not cold, because there is no reason for them not to, until they are taught that this is one of the rules of our society.
That’s not quite true. Being ashamed of nudity actually evolved as a “successful” trait in order to get stuff done and not thinking about sex the entire time. Just blaming society again is not quite enough
Load More Replies...Bad BusLady! Hope it wasn't much trouble as it hardly seems much of a crime! Though some of the things I got into trouble for when I was a child... well, I can't help but think wtf? Seems so very harsh when I look back.
Load More Replies...What a dumb reaction from the pre-school teachers. Calling the parents merely because a toddler takes the clothes off? Obviously this staff has issues...
Some countries the rules are that you aren't allowed to handle the child even to put sunscreen on. Maybe it's because of that type of thing?
Load More Replies...I did this exact same thing too in preschool. Excused myself to go to the bathroom, came back naked as a Jay bird. It was the middle of story time. The teacher saw the other kids weren't reacting so she just finished story time with me sitting there naked and then took me back to the bathroom later to get dressed. She figured why make a big deal about it. I guess that was a good approach because I don't even remember it, it just gets mentioned at every family gathering which is how I even know about it.
How did they explain that to you? I'm still confused on that point myself
Why do children have such a strong death wish? Is there any other animal out there who has to constantly save its young from killing themselves?
Well, they say... "Curiosity killed the cat". Maybe there's a connection. Kids don't really have a death wish, they just don't know they'll die. This is why they're fearless.
Load More Replies...Let's think about how likely it is that you can close the door from the inside.
I have hidden in a dryer that was off (I was the hide-and-seek CHAAAAAAMP)
Me and my sister once thought of this game 'who can climb further out of the window' the lady across the road saw us and probably in shock screamed at us to get back in I nearly lost my grip and fell. Cheers lady! Lol
when my father was 7 his a*****e abusive step father told him if he jumped off the roof of the garage he could fly like superman. So, naturally later that afternoon he tried it. Ended up he couldn't fly like superman and it did not end well.
My mom told me she and her siblings and cousins did something similar by throwing mattresses out of the second-story window of their house and then jumping out the window onto the mattresses. My mom was making her jump just as my grandmother was pulling into the driveway which distracted my mom and made her miss the mattresses, fracturing her tailbone.
I tried the exact same thing, but i was jumping off of my parent's bed instead of a a roof.
I've tried to do that with an umbrella, like Mary Poppins (the first version). My mom caught me in the act right on time.
When I was a wee lassie I tried to fly by tying a kite to my back. Fortunately this was in the living room, and I jumped off a credenza no more than a meter high.
I tried this with a beach towel. Not my most successful descent from the tree house...
Meh, rabbit poo is totally safe. It's been processed by their GI track twice (they eat their first round of poo), so those pellets are cold manure, meaning it's pretty much no worse than playing with some composted leaves or grass. And they are herbivores so they don't really host any nasty zoonotic bacteria that affect humans.
We were camping one year & my 4 y/o daughter found these interesting clumps while we were gathering firewood. They were dried horse droppings, which I knew would burn nicely and she was having such a good time I didn't stop her (They weren't gonna hurt her). My 11 y/o son comes along and asks why she's playing with horse poop. She freaked out and screamed "You let me touch horse POOP?" I'm laughing just writing this. She calmed down when she got to throw them into the fire and saw how pretty they became.
Too funny! Kids are fearless and endlessly fascinated by all life and its many parts!
I found some 'sticky blue playdough' stuck in an airsick bag on a plane. Let's just say it smelled rather minty...
Don't dogs do it to make themselves sick? Mine do anyway! Always know what to wait for if they've been chomping away at our lawn.
Load More Replies...I had a friend who would eat grass and toilet paper and she tried to get me to do it too but I never saw the appeal
Most of my friends at school (elementary school especially) liked eating paper because “it prevents you from getting fat”. I didn’t see how but I never tasted it.
Load More Replies...I was around 7 and was mad at my parents about something - no idea now what it was - and decided to protest them by eating grass b/c I knew they wouldn't like it. I don't think it worked, but I still laugh when I remember how I pulled that s**t. I mean, it was kind of genius in a way, because my mom is very freaked out by dirt.
once i ate grass at my aunties house and threw up EVERYWHERE, i mean EVERY WHERE
Technically Twitter since originally a Twitter post
Load More Replies...My best and funniest stupid kid thing, was when I was 11. I decided to make an angel food cake for my mom as a surprise for desert that night. Used an entire dozen eggs... but didn’t realize you had to whip the egg whites separately! When it came out, I was so upset it wasn’t all fluffy! But then my sister pulled a hunk of it out of the pan, rolled it into a ball, and the damned thing bounced! I have yet to live it down, and have never baked another one since!
Reminds me of a Farmers Insurance commercial - the one about the dog snitching a slice of pizza and accidentally turning on a stove.
I did this once, but it actually worked out pretty well. Good times. Maybe I had a smaller dog or flatter streets though!
I have been seriously tempted to try it as a grown up! My dogs definitely have more energy than I do right now!
Load More Replies...Good they didn't let go, otherwise there might have been posters around "If you have seen this dog, please call"
I did the same when swarm of bees attacked my dog when i was walking her out, they attacked me too, but i never let go the leash it was terrifying !
I dunno this one is actually sweet, you just didn’t wanna lose your doggo :)
One of my own dumbest things was trying to go down a staircase with roller blades on. I was lucky those stairs had a handrail. Next thing I know I'm hanging off the handrail, both my legs off the ground... somehow managed to pull myself up, sit on a step, remove the roller blades and not put them on for a couple of weeks after that.
Too good! I was five, when I took one of my moms lipsticks, crawled under her bed, and ate it. Peed red the next day and scared the c**p out of my mom! We went to the ER, and my mom didn’t notice the bits of lipstick in my teeth, but the doc did! I of course denied it, and was not allowed in to my parents bedroom alone!
My mom used to talk on the phone for HOURS. I could do a lot more than that during one of her phone sessions.
Sounds as though Kristin isn't exactly Mensa material.
Load More Replies...Everyone in the comments forgetting how stupid teenagers actually are. You probably don't remember because your stupidity didn't cause a fire or something, but you can bet we all did incredibly dumb things at this age.
as a teenager I never really was this stupid..I wasnt really reckless or whatever either. I was (and still am) a very boring person...maybe it's because of the depression I started developping at age 12
Load More Replies...I don't know who this person is but they're relatable and I love them
My sister spend most of her early age walking on all fours because se wanted to be a horse. She could actually outrun me, and she is 3 years younger :/ maybe i was just a slow runner, idk.
Is anybody else worried about the fact that shards of glass were in her mouth?!
Think it's a bit too late to get particularly worried about it.
Load More Replies...They have returned from the grave, obviously
Load More Replies...I went through a short phase where I was pretty sure I could fly if I just tried hard enough. I gave it up pretty quickly when none of my flying experiments worked.
When I was 7 and a half, I made two half cylinder shaped 'wings' by bending two soft sticks and tying them by rafflesia strings, and binding the hollow middle with orange rubbish bags XD I nearly jumped off the second floor roof when the rafflesia string on one of the wings broke, so I had to go in and as sad as I was, the 'wings' were thrown away that night by my previous maid Maybe a guardian angel interfered to save my life >w
Load More Replies...Yeah same, i jumped down a whole flight of stairs wearing my Superman costume when i was 5, ended with me somehow turning mid air, cracking the back of my head open on our doorstep, being taken to hospital and having 5 stitches in my scalp. Kids really are so unaware of physics and death.
Friends daughter, 4 or 5 years old, jumped from the top of the stairs with a cape on. Ended up with a concussion and I think a brain bleed, swelling, something like that. When they were packing to leave the hospital she looks at her daughter, who is thinking really hard, and suddenly daughter says... “maybe it was the wrong cape...”
I’m glad the only superpower that I ever attempted to discover and use was to spin and try to turn into Wonder Woman. The only consequence was mild disappointment.
I used to have these super realistic dreams of me flying and when I woke up I tried and didn’t succeed
i once walked home from the mall. alone. i was five. my mom had the police come to the mall looking for me. that was not my first or last disappearing. but definitely my worst
I have explored a water park by myself at 3 by escaping the toilets when my mum had her pants down. I couldn’t swim!
Load More Replies...My grandmother told me a lot of stories about my father when he was little. One was when she couldn't find him in the house. She looked all over, then went outside, couldn't find him. She enlisted the assistance of the neighbors in searching for him. Then, just as she was about to call the police, she went in his room - and there he was, asleep on his bed.
When I was six, (or maybe seven?) I was playing hide-and-seek and I was in my neighborhood. I went WAAY Too far and just as my mom and dad were about to come look for me, I got home.
At least you didn't just scribble all over yourself with a red marker...
Okay, LED’s are a type of light. And if you mean lead poisoning, it’s GRAPHITE. They don’t make stuff with lead anymore for this reason
Load More Replies...My kids filled a drawer with water & were playing in it like a paddling pool. My ex & daughter's Dad only noticed when the water started dripping through the light fitting from the room above! Long story short, he never babysat again, we were without overhead lighting for a week & I did not get my deposit back!
Depends on OP's age, I'm 30 and when I was around 5 I remember we had a TV with the channel buttons on a side of the screen, there wasn't a remote for it
Load More Replies...My sister did the same at 4 (about 31 years ago)..she made a stair with drawers..everything fell including television (an old one..heavy)..luckily she has been projected away and not crushed by the furniture (hard to move, you can imagine how heavy it was).. during her youth years she has been a tornado , I think she has a very busy and efficient guardian angel..
this is why ikea urges everyone to screw dressers and such into the wall :)
I survived cricket bat to head, tripping over socker ball and wacking head on metal bench (left a dint!) and more.
My kids tipped a 3 drawer wardrobe by climbing in it! luckily about half an inch of it landed on the stair gate (which I then realised my son could open) & they landed on a beanbag! I had my Dad fix them to the walls that day!
I doubt she was reading Dickens. Picture books maybe. 3 is not that young for books reading or not.
Load More Replies...I love this. Imagine being the "old lady". It's not like you could refuse a 3YO reading in the dryer.
Haha, yep! and being the "old lady" when really you are 23?? I remember being 6 and thinking the classroom helper from high school was sooooooooo old, and I hoped to be that grown up.

Parents shouldn't leave the fish tank "open" when there are little kids around
True. Probably just depressed from swimming in a tiny bowl.
Load More Replies...My youngest son was 4 when he decided 5hat his older brother's gold fish was cold. Took it out of the water and wrapped it in a cloth and placed it under his pillow. It was really cold then and brother was furious.
I once "mailed" a mud pie--when I was 5 or 6--friends & i were making them. Back then we had the USPS blue mailboxes on almost every corner. i got the brilliant idea to drop a mud pie in the mailbox..no addresses, so it never made it anywhere, but I didn't get caught either. and pretty sure the federal statute of limitations is up...lol
i used to literally bathe in this small hole in our yard i would go there every day exact same time and fill it up with the hose and made my mom watch me just sit in a muddy water hold lol i was NOT ok
i was a girly girl as a kid and i didnt like dirt im glad i was like that
I used to hide the apple parts of my classmate (it was pre school) in the sandbox. That was untill my teacher found out... not impressed.
Some people pretty much do that on a canvas and call it art, though.
if i did this my mom would beat me so hard then tell the rest of my family and then the rest of my family would spank me and groud me
Until you get old and can laugh about all the dumb things you did.
Load More Replies...If only eyebrows and eyelashes grew as fast as chin whiskers and other unwanted hair.
I used my mums mascara, because in my opinion I had no eyebrows (I had very light hair). So I walked around with two black 'caterpillars' above my eyes for weeks.
Egypians shaved their eybrows off to show their greif whenever their cat died... time to start digging out your old Cleopatra costume!
From shaving? The hair wasn’t even plucked. Didn’t know hair grew back that slowly on some people.
This is why kids should never get fish. Sure, I was a young kid when we got our fish but I was educated on the topic of proper fishkeeping and aquaristics. Our goldfish lived for 18 years and would have lived longer if they hadn't gotten a tumor. I can't believe how many humans buy goldfish and carp, then keep them in miniature bowls or plastic containers thinking they'll thrive. They won't even survive. Fish are living beings, they're not toys, please do research before getting pets. No, I am not one of those stuck-up idiots who think any animal who is not a cat or a dog is exotic and should be "free" because that's b******t, but I know that any sort of animal deserves proper nourishment, exercise, grooming and personal freedom. Humans should live in symbiosis with other animals, not use them as objects. Honestly, if a human wants to have a tiger as a pet, why not, as long as they got them legally and provide everything a tiger needs.
when i was 5 i got a pet crayfish and i i loved it. Now i am 11 and have a 125 gallon tank, a 75 gallon tank, a 10 gallon tank, and 2 5 gallon tanks. i have two monster fish. All because of one crayfish. P.S. the crayfish was taken care of properly.
Load More Replies...little kids alone with animals? Not a good idea.........and also animals are not christmas presents or birthday presents for 3 years old kids. This makes me so mad
Oh my gosh, I did this when I was a kid too!! I only had 2 fish though.
I want the entire story. Including the reaction the microwave had to being treated this way.
Ate mothballs. Had my stomach pumped Ate poisonous mushrooms. Had my stomach pumped. Ate my grannies pain meds. Had my stomach pumped. Doctors started asking my parents if they loved me...
who hasn't done that? I did it so many times. mind you, I was not a bright 9 year old
My sister, cousin and neighbourhood kids used to play in our yard. We had a clothes line that spun around (look up Hills Hoist). We used to pick an arm each and swing around in circles and whoever hung on the longest won the game. We called the game, Wheel of Fortune. LOL
I once saw a sign that said "Do not look into laser with remaining eye."
Um I put an entire jar of petroleum jelly in my hair and it took 2 months to get it out lol I looked like a gang leader
When I was in my first year of school, I got curious about the dangly bit at the back of my throat (uvula), so I stuck my fingers in to touch it and instantly projectile vomited across the large desk the whole class was sat around. On the plus side, I got a day off school.
I would have repeated that stunt until they figured it out!

My ex did this with laburnum seed pods (poisonous plant, seed pods look like pea pods) twice as a kid! The second time he got his friends involved. The other parents were unimpressed to hear it wasn't the first time & it was a while before he was trusted around his friends again!
Load More Replies...A couple of days after seeing Mary Poppins at the cinema I jumped off a wall with an umbrella above my head to see if I could float gently down to the ground like the character. I couldn't. Luckily the wall was only about 5 ft.
Did the same with a ladder. I was climbing higher, the higher the heights the higher the chance to actually float, right? Nope. I ended the day after I crashed so badly that my knee hit my chest and I couldn't breath anymore. It took me about 8 years to learn humans can't fly. Go figure.
Load More Replies...When I was 5 years old, I played teacher with my stuffed animals(school) in my room.I lit candles and read from a book. (omg) All at once the wooden floor burned and there was a huge fire in my room.....I ran to my mom and she was at the phone and spoke to her friend. I screamend MOM MOM there is a fire in my room!!! Please quick come!!! My mom said KLAUDIA I am on the phone!!! I have no time now!! I have to say I pranked her a lot as a kid that´s why she reacted that way hahaha I shouted and shoutetd but NO my mom dont believed me. So i ran to the neighbour he then ran to us with a blanket and stifled the fire, now my mom believed me xD
When I was 9-10 I had just learned how to dive into the pool, and I didn't want my new skills to go rusty so I decided to practice my diving at home. We didn't own a pool. I stood on a stool, pointed my arms and curled my toes, and dove headfirst into the living room carpet. I jammed all my fingers and my arms hurt for days. Dumbest thing I've ever done.
I very nearly died at the local swimming pool - age 10. Was doing handstands on the edge of the pool - hand slipped and I smacked my spine very hard on the edge as I went in. Paralysed for a minuite or so - felt like longer - sunk to the bottom - couldnt move my arms or legs. Floated up to the surface could barely gasp for breath. - Not a single person noticed - Lifeguards - nobody. Luckily within a couple of minutes the feeling came back into my limbs so I was able to get out

I was about 5 when I and a friend found a road kill squirrel. We buried it in the back yard and kept digging it up to see if had gone to heaven. It never did and I've been kinda sceptical ever since.
when i was a kid i woke up one night take a p**s in the garbage can in our kitchen and climb on the kitchen table and cover myself with the tablecloth.
When I was about 8 I was playing with an old wooden toy house I had and a piece of it came off. I paid no mind to it and kept playing, only to realize a few minutes latter that the detached piece had a rusty nail almost completely sticking out of it when I stepped on it and the nail went right into my foot. My dumb a*s thought my mom would get mad and take my toy away if I told her, so I never did. I pulled the nail off my foot, put a bandaid on the wound (without cleaning it nor anything), put socks on to hide it and tried my hardest to not limp so they didn't know I was hurt. I'm lucky I didn't get any infection or anything in that wound.
When I was 3 my brother, who was 9, was showing off his dexterity to some female guests. Not wanting to miss the attention, I announced I could ALSO do a hand stand. So, like my brother, I did my handstand...on the porch rail and prompt fell off, head first, into the concrete sidewalk below -- luckily it was only like 5 feet so there wasn't any permanent cabbage banana dog monkey... /s

Please quick come!!! My mom said KLAUDIA I am on the phone!!! I have no time now!! I have to say I pranked her a lot as a kid that´s why she reacted that way hahaha I shouted and shoutetd but NO my mom dont believed me.

When I was 9-10 I had just learned how to dive into the pool, and I didn't want my new skills to go rusty so I decided to practice my diving at home. We didn't own a pool. I stood on a stool, pointed my arms and curled my toes, and dove headfirst into the living room carpet. I jammed all my fingers and my arms hurt for days. Dumbest thing I've ever done.
I very nearly died at the local swimming pool - age 10. Was doing handstands on the edge of the pool - hand slipped and I smacked my spine very hard on the edge as I went in. Paralysed for a minuite or so - felt like longer - sunk to the bottom - couldnt move my arms or legs. Floated up to the surface could barely gasp for breath. - Not a single person noticed - Lifeguards - nobody. Luckily within a couple of minutes the feeling came back into my limbs so I was able to get out

I was about 5 when I and a friend found a road kill squirrel. We buried it in the back yard and kept digging it up to see if had gone to heaven. It never did and I've been kinda sceptical ever since.
when i was a kid i woke up one night take a p**s in the garbage can in our kitchen and climb on the kitchen table and cover myself with the tablecloth.
When I was about 8 I was playing with an old wooden toy house I had and a piece of it came off. I paid no mind to it and kept playing, only to realize a few minutes latter that the detached piece had a rusty nail almost completely sticking out of it when I stepped on it and the nail went right into my foot. My dumb a*s thought my mom would get mad and take my toy away if I told her, so I never did. I pulled the nail off my foot, put a bandaid on the wound (without cleaning it nor anything), put socks on to hide it and tried my hardest to not limp so they didn't know I was hurt. I'm lucky I didn't get any infection or anything in that wound.
When I was 3 my brother, who was 9, was showing off his dexterity to some female guests. Not wanting to miss the attention, I announced I could ALSO do a hand stand. So, like my brother, I did my handstand...on the porch rail and prompt fell off, head first, into the concrete sidewalk below -- luckily it was only like 5 feet so there wasn't any permanent cabbage banana dog monkey... /s
