Hello All,

Well its happened, the nerve in me has finally snapped and i'm back to doing crazy things again, my next wonderful performance will be skydiving with some buddies of mine while listening to the rolling stones!

I've thought about getting married adrift 30,000 ft. So who else wants to go skydiving? What crazy stuff do you guys want to do?

The most dangerous thing I usually do is go to work and that's just fine by me.

That will pwn for the pool if you don't. He'll be chanting things about sweet victory and sporting his new shiny red tattoo Good luck

@Zombie, well... no, unfortunately. But I suppose if I had the money, resources, and time I would attempt to be the worlds first super hero. And I'm serious about that

Its not that intense, only about a meter gap and a 2.5 - 3 meter drop, nothing compared to what pros are doing nowadays (ollying the great wall of china (Danny Way), grinding out on a toppled stop sign bent over the edge of a huge cliff (Dae Won), or wall riding a moving truck (forget who, Bam Margara's friend).

Ill post a vid up if I get er' done.

if you're brave enough to go to shady territory, then you're dangerous in my book. Of course IF you want bonus danger points, you could be a superhero and fight crime with your nipple piercing lol.

Most dangerous thing I have done? Removed the internet cable whilst my sister was really evil towards me...Almost cost me an arm and a leg.

My crazy stuff doesn't consist of dangerous things, although I almost went up to a police officer and telling her that I'm in the process of mugging her and asking how well I'm doing, then I realised it was the evil police officer that nobody likes. Yes I do crazy things in public, I hugger a man dressed up as Superman, there was a guy in a Spiderman costume too, but I'm scared of spiders, I've hugged a Gorilla dude, walked around Kent with an Umbrella out on a hot summers day and licked my Mum's face in public...

Perhaps that stuff will get me beaten up

@Seppuku - People who do the kinds of things you do (hug strangers, lick people in public), irritate me in such a way that I feel like punching them. Of course, in my youth I hung out solely with weird people like that so I can see where you're coming from. I used to hang out in one of the shadiest, dirtiest coffee shops in my old city, and a girl I was sitting with licked the wall next to our table. The wall had various things on it including blood.

Okay, I'm not as weird as your friend there, I don't over do it, only just to make the odd person laugh or to embarrass someone, the people I hug are either friends/family or people in costumes that look friendly. (Well I wouldn't lick a stranger, that's just odd)

You do? Wow this is an eye opener, I'm not as weird as I first thought, then again...I'm probably wrong, as I'd probably do the same given the opportunity.

And again--- if I saw a guy walking around with the sign "free hugs", I'd want to kick his ass. I'm not a violent person so I'd keep it to myself, it's just that kind of self-indulging "look-at-me" thing *really* irritates me.

I think you misinterpret Jeku, its not a self-indulfant "look at me" thing, I myself am not an attention seeker, for one thing my social skills suck, but I just like making people laugh, it can loosen people up, or kill boredom.

that's true though, *sorry Jeku*. I don't crave attetion, though i do make people laugh a lot. I made nurses laugh when they were sewing up my hand when i split it open. Often though people give me dirty looks because i'm odd and do unique things. But when you get that sweet moment, its so worth it.

But everyone thinks doing these things make them unique and individual--- but really, it doesn't. Don't want to be a "negative nancy", but being "odd and different" is nothing new

Me and my cousin used to walk around populated areas of town in cardboard boxes with faces asking people to autograph the box. It was good fun and made alot of people laugh... We weren't seeking attention, just wanted to have a good time. Half the time we just dared each other to do crazy things, we never really wanted to. We just did it to make people laugh and have some funny memories. I'd love to do it again this summer...

Jeku, Well, its not everyone that thinks that way, I'm not so single minded as to think my actions are individual, I don't care that they're not, as long as they make someone laugh. I'm sure what you're saying is true to a certain extent, but to the other, it's false.

You bunch of wusses. If you want to live life on the edge ... go up to a woman who is not fat and tell her she is fat. Now that's dangerous.

Also there is absolutely no good reason to just out of a perfectly good airplane.

Modern life is dangerous enough,

crossing the road, hit by a truck, lost all my memories from < 12 years old, broken too many bones to mention, hospital stay for 6 months, back on peter & john books to relearn everything -.-

Fell or maybe jumped off a roof (can't remember due to above), broke leg.

Fell over a manhole and split lip. Losing blood too fast to get to hospital so 6 people help me down while they stiched it up WITHOUT anasthetic!

Many mountain bike accidents requiring sedation to have gravel removed from various limbs. Most notable was Bus driver just pulled to the curb to let passengers off (no where near a bus stop!) and took me out.

Been rear shunted on the motorway while stationary in a queue TWICE! My neck is pretty much screwed 24x7x365 clicking and acheing.

There's a few other near deathers I left out coz I know long posts don't get read...

I just know with my luck, if i jumped out of a plane I'd be asking for trouble

Nah, to say "your fat" is too obvious, for best results you need to be more subtle and instead say "when is the baby due?".

Only joking, if you can't say anything nice you probably shouldn't say anything at all, it can realy effect some people mentally and make 'em anorexic.

gatorhex-since you're already in pain, what could a jump do? short of killing you, it doesn't seem like anything worse could befall you at 30,000 ft.

Well, what I did was, said something, associated that thing with being fat and then associated it with her, thus in her mind, calling her fat.

I have no fear of death, it's just like being asleep, and I've watched the Lion King (circle of life thing)

However, from experience, I expect my luck would run something like this... prachute fails, backup fails too, I land in a tree/bush and survive but with multiple injuries and in more pain for the rest of my life

You didn't stich it up yourself?


Quote: "He he, I've done that one, funny how they never let you forget these things."


I was talking about a stranger, though I guess it is about the same for someone you know.

Everybody has their own danger quirks I guess. I would ride a roller coaster to the moon and back, forwards and backwards, spiraling both ways, and moving wicked fast. I just don't like putting my life in the hands of a thin cloth and a bunch of small ropes.

A stranger, well now that's daring, but since I'm not cruel, I doubt I'd ever do it, like I was told to hug a sleeping Chinese guy, I refused to do it, because it would be mean and not funny for him.

dont or you may no offense forget to pull your chute from posing to the camera, unless it a helm camera

the most dangerous thing i ever did was to try and get my girlfriend at the time's bag from a chav in school who was holding a lighter with what I thought was a possible attempt to light us... looking back it was only a lighter and it would only need to be patted out
