Sometimes I cringe at how many times I've brushed past disaster because I attempted things that in retrospect were perhaps not very intelligent. For example, in ascending order of stupidity:
River jumping - A not-so-risky start as some may remember this enjoyable but slightly potentially dangerous activity that we occasionally went a bit too far with.
Early childhood tinkering with electronics - including trying to solder a wire to a battery (causing the battery to explode 6 inches in front my face) and testing my "waterproof stereo".
The Festiva - how many times did I drive way too fast in inclimate weather in order to meet that holy 12 O'clock cut off time in a car that really should not have even been on the road. *shudder*
However, high altitudes, impulse ideas, rickety apparatus and "extreme film making" in isolated areas takes the cake with Miscellaneous thr3e filmings - like when Aubrey's (vacant) car started rolling backwards downhill and continuously slamming my mom's car causing it to get closer and closer to rolling off that bridge in the middle of the woods from The Chase 3. Luckily Aubrey was agile enough to dive into his car and apply the brakes before my life was ruined.
