I almost became a Darwin Award candidate.

Several years ago, after a big storm, an old cypress tree on our property had a limb fall off of it. The only problem was the limb was somehow still attached to the tree by a thin sliver of bark. The attaching bark was out of my reach, and I didn't feel like walking back up to the house to get the appropriate tool to saw it apart. So, with the dull hatchet that I had brought with me I decided that I could Apache the limb off if I threw the hatchet at just the right spot. I backed up a few paces to what I considered a safe distance and let it fly.

The good news: I hit the tree at exactly the point I had been aiming for.
The bad news: The hatchet was now bouncing right back in the direction of my head.

My reflexes are usually not that fast, but in this case before my brain even comprehended what was going on my legs just went limp and I fell to the ground while the hatchet passed right where my head had been.

Yeah, I do incredibly stupid things sometimes.

Oh, and the limb still didn't fall off the tree.

Oh man. Driving home from school with 3 of my friends when i was 16, I swerved at this big ol mexican guy who was j-walking. So we're all laughing and all of a sudden right behind me is the mexican guy honking his horn. We were all scared sh!tless. So we drove to the nearest police station and parked. And he drove off.
Moral of the story: NEVER FVCK WITH M3XIC4NS

Walked out onto the middle of a small one lane bridge while water was coming across the top of it from Hurricane Agnes. Went back the next morning and the bridge was gone.

Yes, because only M3XIC4NS suffer from road rage. Moron.

Feel in love with a girl online (Her in Oregon, me in NYC), and then she broke up with me 3 years later, (after only meeting once for 4 days). Then watch her preceed to meet a new guy online, move in with him (He lives in NJ), and then get engaged to him.

I probably should have also mentioned that the amount of time between meeting this new guy and the engagement was about 6-8 months

I'd have to say the stupidest thing I've done was hook up with the best friends girl friend when we were both drunk then hiding it then him finding out and fvcking up or life long friend ship over something so unmeaningful to me. Good leason though, I never put myself in a situation anymore where I may be getting drunk with a friends gf/so.

I let my friend drive my my golf cart. He decides to go backwards at full spped down a hill. Right before the bottom he brakes and turns the wheel as hard as he can. I turn around and see the golf cart in the middle of a barrel roll.

nope, no ass kicking it takes two to tango buddy, luckly he realized that its not totally my fault, and in fack she did take advantage of me and I learned later on that she had cheated on him with others many times. She's a dumb hoe.
