    God, where do I even begin?

    Let's see...going off with a random guy and my best friend to his fishing boat to play strip poker.

    Got drunk on another friend's nearly flat roof. I was perfectly fine, but my friends kept thinking I was getting too close to the edge.

    Driving with one foot hanging out of my window...I thought I was all bad-*kitten*, but in my defense, I did pull my foot back in once I hit 40mph.....

    So many times I went to random parties, went off with random people....hell, I even gave three drunk guys a sober ride home one night. They all could have turned out so badly...

    BUT other than that, best/stupidest thing I can think of is play strip poker with three of my friends in our dorm building while having an advisor who lives on the floor right across the hall in his room and people from the speciality floor coming and talk to us every 5min. (Yes we were drunk)

    Way back in 2001, I was a newlywed, and my hubby and his friend decided to run a cable between two trees. Pulled tight by my 1979 Chevy Nova. On said cable, they had a pulley. On this pulley, they had a strap. Now, they rode this pulley down the cable numerous times. With much fun and brovado. When my stupid self said "I want to try!". Now, I specificaly asked "I won't get hurt, right?". To which they replied "No!". As I twisted and turned my way down said cable, I bounced off of the tree at the end, and landed straight on my butt. And began screaming. After they saw that I Wasn't Freaking Joking, they carried me into the house. And called 911. Living in the boonies, it took EMS 20 minutes to get there. In the ambulance, I begged the guy "Knock me out!", to no avail. After arriving in the hospital, they had to cut me out of my clothes. My favorite jeans. Well, MRI revealed that I had fractured one vertebre and crushed another. Three days later, and a very loopy journey through ICU ( by the way-I hate jello now), I had surgery. Two 10" rods and 8 2" screws later, I found out I was one .16" from being peralized. 12 years later, I still count my lucky stars. Oh, by the way, did I mention I was completely sober and watching Murder She Wrote right before? Hmm.
    Luckily, I can't remember most of my dumb drunk stunts.

    Stood up to a robber when I was 18 working at a pizza restaurant. He had a large hunting knife. I had a 27" wicked looking pizza cutter (looked like a saber!). I was dumb and thought I had the upper hand.

    Luckily, he gave up and left. The cops and the boss both told me I was an idiot. Personally, I think I'm just lucky in a calculated way.

    Cops were just jealous you saved the day!

    Come to think of it, I did ride on the freeway in a Ford Pinto with my legs hanging out the hatchback. Being in a Pinto at all was probably the most dangerous thing I've ever done. :tongue:

    I was 16, in the car with my friend, Heather. She lit a bottle rocket and held it out the window (while driving), it flew back into the car through the back window where me and my friend Josh was sitting. We both scream and he slams his steel toed boot onto it right before it explodes...

    Whoo...

    Think the question should be, what stupid thing have I not done? The 90's are a blur!

    I thought it was a great idea to play Dora the explorer and climb down an ocean side cliff while I was drunk. SMH. I have no clue how I managed to walk away from that with just a few scratches and bruises.
    Virtual high-five! I've done the same (except it was a hill's cliffside for me).

    However, THE dumbest thing I've ever done is shoot myself in the face. Just above the eye. With a bow. Sober.

    When I was a teenager, I once "shot the pier" in Lake worth.
    What happens is that you catch a big wave, usually the remenants of a tropical storm or a hurricane, and, as you are riding it in, you surf under the pier.
    This is stupid on more levels then I can count.

    The next dumb thing was while stationed in Augsburg, Germany.
    These two girls decided they wanted to go to a bar in Ansbach. One girl had a Miata. I was the most sober of the bunch so, I drove while getting a "handie" from one of the girls. My buddy and the other girl sat on the convertible top cover while driving on the Autobahn to Ansbach.

    And finally, I decided to test the limits on a borrowed GSXR1300.
    It was around midnight and it was on Alligator Alley. This is an absolutle straight peice of road but, at those speeds, you tend to override the headlights. I remembered hearing stories about alligators laying on the blacktob because it was warm and that slowed me down. I would imagine hitting a 500LB gator at 180 MPH would end badly for me.

    Dangerous = "Looking for Mr. Goodbar"" in the 70's

    Stupid = taking "quaaludes" and turning left and driving OVER a median into oncoming traffic and into a person's yard without getting hit or caught by the cops

    Ugh..When I was 16 I met a guy online(myspace I believe), he was 25, and lived in another state and flew out to see me after a few months of talking. Stayed in an apartment with him for a few weeks, it was very stupid.

    Another stupid move I made was trying to drive with my cousin in a really bad blizzard, to get some booze (his idea). We made it a few feet until we got stuck and had to shovel the jeep out, and we continued driving! Picked up a homeless man, exchanged a ride for him buying us our booze since we were underage and drove him to the worst motel in that area. Pretty sure he pocketed most of our money too.
