Many, many stupid decisions as a kid...here's a few that stick out
1 - Me and a buddy thought we'd take lawn darts to the next level at our cabins near Invermere when we were about 15. We had bow and arrows that we'd shot into hay bales before. So we stood about 50m apart and shot them up into the air and would try to basically hit each other. We lost sight of them as they got up, then they'd land with a distinctive "thunk" and we'd laugh at how close we got. Or dad's heard us laughing and came out to see and then proceeded to freak the F out...lol...
2 - Played cowboys and indians with real pellet guns, same buddy as above along with our siblings.
3 - Stole a pen from a store as a kid when we were out shopping for a mothers day card with my dad. Got home and my dad asked where the pen came from. Was very obvious I stole it, so my dad marched me back to the store to apologize to the owner and return the pen. Needless to say it was the last time I tried to five finger discount anything.
4 - Went mountain biking near Invermere and found a herd of cattle. We started to throw rocks at them which caused a stampeded as they all ran out the only path in to the field...we got caught in the middle and had to bail out into trees so we didnt get trampled.
