Category: Let's talk
I was just wondering what's the craziest thing anyone's ever done? One of the craziest things I've ever done was last night when I dropped a whole quart of fried rice all over the floor of my dorm room!
I have climbed out to sit on the door frame of a friend's sports car, as he rapidly accelerated, I was soaked and elated, to say the least.
This was in Italy where nearly everyone wants to be a racing driver.
Hmmm! I've done loads of crazy things in my time. I've brushed past a rack of baskets in Waterstones and sent the whole bloody lot flying, I fell off an indoor bowling green and took my mum with me so she almost fell flat on her face but stopped herself by sprawling over the row of chairs round the edge (lucky no-one was sitting in them, lollol) I was racing a friend from the changing rooms in to the swimming pool so she jumped clean over the barrier while I glided gently in to the pool and waited for her to join me. Lmfaolmfaolmfaolmfaolmfao! O, and vice versa, only I fell through one of the ladders down the shallow end when I fell in the pool. That was when we raced each other back to the changing rooms again.
I can't think of the craziest thing I've ever done, but I can think of some things I'd like to do, like skydiving. Any blind people who have done that?
No but I've been handgliding.
And I know 1 mad sod who wants to handglide from the summit of the Eiger.
sounds scary, though not as terrifying as bungey-jumping.It's just you in a harness, hanging from a very strong piece of elastic. At least, I think that's how it works.
as if id write that here ;)
The NFB Training centers take their people skydiving.. I cant wait.. hehe.. I go to training next month
Have a great time. I'd like to hear about it.
I have gone sky diving, back in 2001, while at the NFB Colorado Center for the Blind. It's certainly not mandatory, but they support their students who want to do it. It's an absolute rush, you guys, one of the best. I'd do it again in a freaking heart beat. Sixty seconds of free-fall, God, it was so cool!
hi, i was the girl that dumbledore's girl had those races with, and, i just jumped, clean out of her way and never thought i'd end up over the barrier and into the pool. I can remember her falling through the ladder into the shallow end, that, was mad. I've also made a pot noodle at our school about quarter past 2 in the morning when nobody was allowed downstairs and heard the houseparent come out of her room. Another one is being drunk with a girl i knew in college. we were walking back from someone's party and heck, we just wanted to sit down in the road for some strange reason.
This is an interesting topic. So many crazy people, so little time.
I would have loved to go sky diving.
I guess one of the craziest things I've ever done was to pass out anti-war pamphlets in my dorm in college with the campus police hot on my trail. At one time they stopped me and asked if I knew who was handing out those hippy pamphlets, and I told them they weren't in braille, so I didn't have any idea.

Hahaha!
Why not do it man I would, what's to stop you, besides yourself
do it.

I was 3 months out of rehab,and not at all the happy confident guy you see here.
I'd decided, with much convincing, to try skiing.
Man was that an eye opener, feck I ended up hurtling down the red runs with all the experts, still it was something to brag about to the lads.
Stevie
sounds like fun I hear people fall down a lot on their first go.
Narcissa, you talking about sitting in the middle of the road makes me think of a night in Denver when two friends and I decided to dance out in the middle of the street. Thankfully it was not a busy street by any means, but you did get cars sometimes. It was still pretty stupid. But we did have fun dancing our butts off.
Any of you guys ever done a Chinese firedrill? Those are fun, too.
no never done one of those. lololol. there were no cars where we were luckily or very few anyways. i managed to convince my friend that, we didn't indeed have long to go until we reached our flat and sitting there wasn't a good idea after all.
The craziest thing I've ever done, well it was crazy to me considering that I'd never normally do it. But in high school, a friend and I skipped class and went walking around at school. We went to the vending machine to get a soda and then went back to an office where our Braille printer and stuff was kept. I was so freakin' nervous that a teacher would see us and maybe tell my teacher; I cared that he would be disappointed or would say something. (Hers apparently didn't care, but I knew mine did.)
I went to this family function and got really drunk. I'm talking really drunk to the point where I was saying things and they weren't making sense. Well, the subject of music comes up, so I launch into an inprompto version of a Xhosa children's song that roughly translates as young boys that fight with sticks.
Then there was the time a friend convinced me to climb a rock wall. I'm about 30 feet off the ground at this point, and as she's lowering me down, I break into Nkosi Sikelel iAfrika in front of at least 20 people, some of which were with a tour group of little school kids.
Couldn't a Chinese fire drill get you arrested?
Probably, but isn't that the fun of it, running the risk? Grin.
Aw'w'w, my god, I've just remembered. I go to this disabled skiing class every second Sunday of every month, with the acception of the next, er, probably 24-36 months as I'm off to College again. Anyway, I'm still only a beginner, but when this particularly amusing incident happened, I was only just learning how to stop myself/put the brakes on if for example, I was going to collide with another skier. Anyway, I was stood on the dry ski slope, around where the blue line is marking the top of the nursery slope I normally use, I positioned my skis in the Snow plough or slice of pizza position so I could stop myself, however, my feet decided they didn't want me to ski in the correct fashion, using the snow plough method, so I completely lost control and with the bloody skis pointing straight out in front of me and the instructer having let go of me, I went absolutely whizzing down the slope at around 80 MPH, completely hysterical, laughing my f...ing head off and wham! I couldn't stop myself, so I decided I'd fall flat on my face in order to stop, so, that's exactly what I did. Every disabled skiing instructer in the place came racing over to me because my eyes were also watering like mad I was laughing so much, that they thought I was crying, in floods of tears. I'll never forget that moment as long as I live, lmfaolmfaolmfaolmfaolmfao, Oo god, I'm laughing so much now, I can hardly write this post. I wouldn't recommend any other poor sod who's just learning to ski falls flat on their face in order to stop. Those dry ski slopes are particularly scratchy nasty bristly things to fall on. Mind you, it didn't actually hurt me when I fell flat on my face.

Hahahahha! Nice one, Jen. Grin.
Oh yes, then there was the time I decided it would be fun to vollonteer for our local muscular dystrophy association telethon a few years a go, its about 9 in the morning, and I get my first call. Its this guy who's really shit faced drunk. He's so drunk, that when I ask him his name, he tells me its Santa Clause. Shit, I think this guy must be really drunk because he doesn't even know his own name. They didn't tell us how to handle such a call, so I just wind up telling him to sobor the fuck up, and to call back when he's no longer fucked up.
Interesting topick. I didn't see it before.
When i was studying at Dorton college in England towards the end of my studies there i was so desperate to find another Greek speaking person to speak with so i did something that wouldn't do now.
We had an email sistem with access to a pubblick addressbook which included all stuff and students from dorton school and college. So i cellected everyone from this addressbook and send them a Greek email asking if anyone speaks Greek. I am sure most of them didn't find my idea a good one but i found it funny at the time lol.
Craziest thing i ever did, hmm, i have a lot. Let's see where do i start? Jokes, i got a few, hmmm. Sneaking out of my hotel while my whole family was sleeping, and spending the night in the city without my family, but with a friend. It was fun. lol I bet its not considered crazy for others because they've done more crazier things, hmm lets see, me and a friend was driving around the neighborhood with a loud music playing on. It was late at night and we were yelling and screaming really loud. If I think of anything, I will post it here.
I remember when I harnaced myself up in a tree. It was at an nfb thing.
Later, someone broke the thing and fell off and gut hurt quite badly.
something crazy I did was walk out of my house naked. why I did it I will never know. I was six years old and walked outside butt naked. oh god!!!
Aw'w'w Leah. That might be a crazy thing to do, but when my cousin was two and we had a family day orund our house, he toddled off, naked, to explore the house by himself or perhaps it was to go to the loo, because the next thing I knew, he was stood by the kitchen door and giving the kitchen floor a wash it didn't really need, lollol. Of course I went straight back outside to find mum so she could clean it up, byt I thought that was one of the craziest things he's done. Then there was the time my Aunt took my cousin to one of these after School soccer clubs and he actually stopped play because he'd noticed a worm on the football pitch and he probably didn't want all the other boys to squish it under foot, fo rthey weren't the nicest bunch of mothers/fathers and sons in that particular club as a lot of them were from Alton, quite a rough area where Joe and his younger sister Kezzie're now at a local Secondary School, so this other mother was trying to get her son, Lee, to beat Joe up while he was down, rescuing the worm, but I think disaster was avoided and play resumed.
