What is the craziest thing you have ever done in your life???

[amalelee4u]

one of the craziest anyway

when i was like 15 years old in high school me and my buddies thought it was a bright idea to skip school and go mardi gras (fat tuesday to be exact) on bourbon street.we were wrong very wrong. we drove 130 miles to get there and then the insanity insued. everyone of us were tanked out of our minds before we got there. after looking for parking for like an hour and a half we blessed everyone on bourbon street with our prescence.well the day started going wrong when one of my friends picked a fight with a tranny.that tranny beat the hell outta my buddy. i wanted to help him so bad but i was laughing so hard i could hardly stand up.it gave me a whole new respect for trannies lol
when things really got bad was when the cops showed up.they let the tranny and his buddies go but since we were all minors and very obvisously intoxicated they arrested us.since we were all so happy and had such kind words for the police they used those plastic cable ties to tie our hands behind our back and our feet together and locked us in a transport van for like 2 or 3 hours that is an eternity when you got a bladder full of beer. then our parents thought it would be good punishment to let us sit in jail all night so they threw us all in a holding cell together over night. it was crowded but at least we had a cell to ourselves thank god. the next afternoon at school we were all in the priciples office and after the your stupid and lucky to be alive speech we were notified of our two day suspension. i told the principal oh this is horrible we get another 2 days off school and the fish are biting. so he paddled me in front of everyone and still gave me 2 days. it wasnt all bad i did catch alot of fish. we all went back the next year and had a great time lol. ahh the days of my mispent youth make me want to start back drinking but i know better.

There are so damn many!

From the incident that landed me in my wheelchair, which was that as an out-of-shape 53 year old I tried taking on four 20-somethings barehanded to stop them from gang-raping a neighbor's daughter, through running the Federal siege lines at Wounded Knee with medical supplies for the AIM (American Indian Movement)defenders, to having sex while leaning over the railing on the (closed at that hour) top deck of a Staten Island Ferry crossing New York Harbor while waving to the people on the ferry going the opposite way as we passed.

BUT...
The absolute craziest what the F*** was I thinking thing I've ever done was in Detroit in the summer of 1969.

I was spending the summer there. I was a lone wolf outlaw biker at the time.
Another lone wolf biker, a buddy of mine, got beat up and put in the hospital by a local biker gang, and they roughed up his old lady real bad too. I publicly challenged the gang to a rumble; there were 12 guys in their club. I was by myself.

I posted a big oak tag sign on a counterculture bulletin board that said; "The Tank hereby challenges the Detroit chapter of the Outlaws Motorcycle Club to a rumble. R.S.V. P. SHOTGUNS OPTIONAL."

I know. It was totally nuts. They accepted, but then they got to thinking; they weren't gonna look very good no matter what happened. If 12 guys beat up one guy, so what, and the 1 gets cred for big brass cojones. If somehow the 12 LOSE, they look really bad. They started looking for a way out.

They sent some of their hangers on to talk to me. The message was basically that I oughtta back out because I can't win, and they would let me. I answered that the way I see it, I can't lose. They asked me what I meant. I told them, deadly serious, that they could only kill me one time. Therefore, as soon as I kill two of them, I WIN!

Final outcome; I showed up at the appointed time and place, but they never did. They got known as the club that punked out from one guy. They got laughed outta town. They're probably back now, but with all different guys.

Thinking back, the scariest thing about it is this; at the time, when I said if I kill two of them I win, I REALLY MEANT IT!
WHAT THE F*** WAS I THINKING?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

Anyone bungee-jump the Empire State building in drag? (Do not try this at home..)

That's easy; posting on this website. Or having eventually sought to meet anyone from it...
though NEST was quite the astonishing Warm & Fuzzy overall

Storyteller & Mastertank, we all knew nobility's obviously defined by behavior rather than surname

And is it my imagination or is there no reply from the creative gentleman who initiates these threads?


(OK, back to hibernation..)

When I was about 18, I drove from my college 5 hours to visit a guy I had met on the internet (I was meeting this guy for the 1st time). I told no one where I was going. STUPID, STUPID, STUPID and crazy! I made it back okay thank god, but I sometimes think back to that time and thank God I did make it back. *shiver*

Let's see, there was the time I had sex in a cemetary after it had been closed to visitors for the day. But honestly, the most insane thing I ever did was when I was when a girlfriend broke up with me and I immediately got in my car and drove to Mississippi to talk her out of it. Keep in mind, I live in California. It was probably one of the only times I've felt something that could seriously be called fight or flight instinct.

the most insane thing ive done was a certain drag race i was in back in '92 or '93. i raced a new 5.0 mustang with an aftermarket supercharger with my 1970 mustang. i had a larger engine, but his car handled better than mine. it was pretty late and there was no traffic, but at several points we hit around 110 to 120mph on the streets, and i came up on a couple corners WAY too fast. neither one of us backed down until the next light, my car is pretty fast but i only got him by less than half a car length. we are both lucky we didnt wind up as roadkill, and that was a pretty stupid stunt on my part, but it seemed like a good idea at the time. these days, i do NOT race on the street anymore...much easier to pay 20.00 to go to the dragstrip and do it legally and safely

Got drunk, put on my brown felt fedora with a crimson feather in the brim and stood on the street corner at 2:30 in the am quoting...actually I should say shouting lines from Chaucer's "Canturbury Tales" and Shakespeare's "King Lear" whilst grandly gesturing with my hands at each enunciation...all to amuse my friends.

I was dubbed "The drunken dandy" that night; and was mortified upon sobering up. Needless to say I don't drink with them any more.
