    148 mph on a motorcycle not built for that speed. I was curious about its top end speed, never got there, it was clearly not able to handle past 148. Once it got wobbly I slowed.

    Drink and drive, TBH.

    Outside of that, it’s probably a toss up between having sex with a hooker, or tossing fresh cut logs under the porch while a storm gathered. At the time I was a kid and lived on 8 acres and around 4am lightning hit and killed a tree about 100yd from where my Pa and I had been working the afternoon before; it’s tied for when I did Outward Bound in Montana and a t-storm rolled in on day 0. They taught us the t-storm drill and lightning struck about 150yd away during the drill. They obviously knew what they were doing. Both times it sounded like a howitzer going off. Eek!

    Told my wife she was overreacting and should calm down?

    Aside from that death-defying stunt, it was probably when I punched a great barracuda in the face.

    Hmm, probably hitch hiking. But I'm not dead or missing so it worked out alright.

    Back in the early sixties a neighbor had a garage where all the teens would gather to work on their cars. It was a block building with a huge wood stove, several old 40s Cadillacs stored for some doctor, and a dirt floor with hundreds of tools smashed into the dirt.

    Outside was a baseball field that we had built, located on several acres.
    One day "the gang" decided to buy old cars to race around the field. Something like five or six cars. I can remember a '56 Ford, '57 Pontiac, etc.
    We busted out the windows, removed the exhaust systems, and raced around raising a huge cloud of dust and thundering noise. No seat belts, no helmets, no fire extinguishers, etc.
    This was right beside a four lane highway and the state cops would pull over from time to time to watch us go round around in circles bashing into one another.
    My cousin had an old Chevy and one day it quite running. For some reason he couldn't get gas to the carburetor.
    He bought an electric fuel pump and installed it...but that didn't work, it ran a little and stopped out in the field.
    Now instead of pushing it back to the garage we came up with a better idea.
    If you take a 2 gallon gas can and put it on the roof you can run a hose down to the carb and just gravity feed the gas.
    Since I was the youngest I was elected to hold the can. On the roof.
    So I laid spread eagle on the roof with the can under me. I held onto the rain gutter with one hand and used the other to "regulate" the gas by pinching or releasing the hose. I was the "on the roof throttle".
    We made a lap or two and then took it back to the garage.

    Later on we refined the "system" by placing a five gallon can of gas back were the rear seat used to be.
    Then we ran a hose into the can and up to the fuel pump. By this time we had figured out that either the fuel line was plugged or the gas tank had a vapor lock.
    My job was to hold the can.
    It worked well except that after a few laps I was soaked with gasoline.

    We got the car running again without that set up somehow, but I don't remember how.
    It didn't matter because in the meantime my cousin decide he wanted "reverse wheels", cause they looked cool.

    Of course if you just reverse standard wheels as the bolt holes have no chamfer for the lug nuts to seat into.

    So after a short time of running laps the bolts ate their wheel through a front wheel, which promptly flew off the car and across the highway, as the old Chevy rolled over a few times,

    Some time later that week we came home from school to discover my neighbor's mother had called up a junk yard and had all the cars towed away.

    That ended our race track adventures.
    (Later on we switched to dirt bikes.)

    I almost stabbed out my eye in a workplace accident...
    Was cutting something in a very stupid position, when suddenly my hand slipped and a very pointy knife went straight into the bony structure right above my eye socket. A little bit lower and I would probably have lost my left eye (@_@')
    Luckily it only left a little scar behind, but I've been very very very careful with that sort of stuff ever since

    I was wheelman for some crazed addicts doing a pharmacy
    They all had fotos taken and State prison. Two snitched on me but my dude swore I was not present.
    Totalled a couple cars on I-95, went to pull a driver out of a car at a red light until I saw the Dirty Harry hanging out the window. Big SUV cut me off on Interstate so I fell back, maneuvered ahead unseen and slammed my brakes on on front of him at 80 mph ...his big red pig car swerved into median and flipped on its side.
    Went after an armed robbery on foot cause the cop whose car we were in ( unrelated matter) top fat to chase him.. He never saw me coming but crowd ( mostly his race) started kicking and beating me until city's finest showed up. Fat cop got the collar but the hot classy little senorita ( now my wife) say onu lap, her back to instrument gauge and windshield and fucked my brains out going 80 mph on SB
    I-95.. Lots more even worse stuff but this is sounding egotistical

    Making fulminated mercury and then testing it out. That was 50 years ago when I was young and very dumb.

    It's a toss up between racing motorcycles and telling my wife "I'm leaving".

    On a trail a ways outside of Haines (Alaska), a woman and I were looking at fresh grizzly bear tracks. While we were looking to where they went, another woman came by and showed us a pic of that big bear on her phone. She'd seen it five or ten minutes before. So my companion and I decided to follow the tracks, while the other woman wisely left the scene.

    We weren't able to catch up to the grizzly, and it's probably good that we didn't. We were unarmed, and our impulse was a very dangerous (and stupid) one, I think.
