Not reenlisting in the Army after my first tour was over because in my mind 40 was old as hell. I've worked with plenty of retired Army guys that are receiving 100% disability and a retirement check and they have a different attitude about work. At 44 I think that was the stupidest thing I've ever done.

Hard to choose just one. I was watching the summer Olympics when I was young and after watching the parallel bar competition, I thought I could ride my bike under a low mimosa tree limb grab it with my hands and just swing right around the limb. I ended up on my back so fast Got up and thankfully nobody witnessed this truly remarkable stupid idea.

Threw eggs at vehicles and people.......in the middle of the magnolia projects.

That was the first and last time I have ever been shot at.

In high school, a big ice storm hit NE Texas. Farm truck number one (61 Chevy) had a 1/2 inch of ice on the windshield. Decided the way to deice it was to "gently fracture the ice." It ended up gently fracturing the glass.

Farm truck number two was stored in the barn. The windshield was fine. But, we needed something for traction on the roads which were solid clear ice. So, we wrapped baling wire around the wheels. When we drove, the wire broke and stuck from the wheel. As the wheels rotated, the wire stripped the paint off around each wheel.

Dad was as mad as I've ever seen him.

ETA: I'll add one that is probably common: Getting a whipping from Dad as a young kid I turned around and said "you trying to tickle me."

Went to work on a Sunday and waited outside wondering why nobody was showing up. I felt really dumb for a month after that.

Probably 11 or 12 years old. Buddy of mine and I found a box of 22 bullets in the barn where we were working. Somehow the question of what they look like on the inside came to mind, so I set one down on the concrete slab and started wailing on it with a hammer. Second lick that sumbitch went off and took a chunk of my thumb with it. Thankfully only a (gaping) flesh wound. Regardless, I can still look down and see the results of that stupidity every day.

Stepped over a PTO shaft between a tractor and grain auger. The spinning shaft grabbed my jeans and ripped my pant leg off from the crotch down. Lord was watching over me that day.

Yes he was watching over you. That happened to a gentleman south of Clinton a few years back. It didn’t end the same way .

I shot my brother in the head with a BB gun. BB lodged about a quarter inch from his eye. He had to go to the doc to get it dug out and stitched up.

Dressed up as a ninja turtle on a stage, cranked a fictitious lawn mower several times and jumped into a large crowd expecting to be caught. Will never do it again

Honorable mention: got bit in the face by an 8’ python

On my senior cruise in the ‘80s, I caught an ameiva lizard in Puerto Rico and smuggled it onto the cruise ship and then on the plane ride home from Miami. Would’ve been a $10,000 fine if I got caught…and I kind of did.

My cabin steward actually found it in the room when we were back at port on the final day. I had it in the ice bucket with a towel over the top, secured with my belt. He opened it while cleaning the room and it jumped out. I’m coming back from breakfast and pass my roommate in the hall and he says, “They’re looking for you.”
Get back to the room and they called ship officials and customs agents to search the room. I just denied everything and said someone must’ve put it there to prank us. After they left, I found it under the bed. Put it inside a leather pocket-camera case and put it in the inside pocket of my coat. We had to wear suits on the flight there, but not on the way home. On the plane ride home there were 99 kids in shorts & t-shirts…and me in a suit with a large lizard in my pocket.

Who knew you couldn’t smuggle live animals across countries?

…another would be running from the cops at 100+mph on a Yamaha R6 when I was a 40-something yr. old dentist with a wife and 3 kids at home. Never rode on the street again after that stupidity - stuck to track days thereafter.
