What is the most risky thing you have ever done?

for a time I detonated explosives for a living... went to work in a helicopter everyday for like 18 months...worked in ordinance disposal to clean up live fire ranges... do I win???

Probably any one of my one night stands back in the day. Not too smart on my part, lol.

Probably deciding that I was going to prevent my very drunk and very volatile ex from stealing my car after she had snagged my keys from my pocket by leaping onto the hood. I wound up clinging for dear life as she reached speeds in excess of 100mph on dusty country roads in the middle of the night for about 20 minutes. How she managed to avoid the ditches and killing us both I'll never know. I tried not to block her view but the force of the wind was literally pushing me up the wind shield.

When I was younger I had several times where I moved without having money or a plan. The riskiest was probably when I moved to Alaska and was over 4000 miles away from anyone I knew. Circumstances found me with no car, no job, no place to stay. I slept in Walmart's bathroom my first night, then I went to a library computer and found someone online who would let me sleep on their couch. I worked my way up from there. It was the best experience I ever had... it taught me I was strong enough to live on my own without my ex husband. It still was five more years before I got a divorce, though! Even though I hadn't seen him in that time.

AMAZING

Back in the day I done too many stuff to even sift through to put on here…I called a cop an a hole(the actually word right to his face) when i was sloshed- all he wanted was my ssi number so idk i went to the hospital and nearly got my stomach pumped…cop said he would take me to jail if i refused-i am one stubborn woman and don't start when I have too much alcohol..I won't drink like that anymore. The second was driving at and over 100 the other day because some idiot didn't want me to be ahead of him that person wasn't worth dying or killing someone else for… I did eventually beat him-I rarely go that fast to get ahead of someone -anyone-I am fairly defensive but for some reason-this car went out of his way to be in front of me and its like c'mon well I know next time it won't happen…I learn fairly quick these days and I did eventually get past that car- I got off my exit before him….I need to let go of that….i feel something coming over me and its not right and let it go…..anyways I do have 1 other that was worse than these two but too personal to talk over the internet…about that anywyas

LOVE THE HONEST.

Trusting.
It's gotten me into trouble several times, some of it of the serious life-changing sort.

In most states, even if he suspected you of a crime (and check to see whether public drunkenness is a crime in your state; i.e., can you be put in jail as punishment for it) all you have to provide is your name & place of residence (Jayne Dough, Prescott, AZ).

Then other than saying "I want my lawyer, her name is _________", SHUT UP.

No matter what else they say or do to you, shut up. Nothing you can say will make things any better. Remember this part: "Anything you say can & will be used against you in a court of law"? It doesn't say your statement can help you at all, only that they'll find some way to use your words against you (even if they have to lie).

And unless they can somehow stretch swearing to say you were committing disorderly conduct, exercising your freedom of speech is not a crime.

Getting a boat with some random guys at the beach. Looking back now, that could have turned out way different.
