Anybody ever tried to jump a barbed wire fence? Not the kind that keeps cows in, but like a chain-link fence with an angled barbed wire portion at the top. It looks like it would be super easy to me. Just throw a jacket or blanket on top and go nuts. Am I missing something? Maybe it's just to keep people out that would scale the fence impulsively, but it looks to me with about five seconds of planning you could get over barbed wire without any trouble at all.

So if you have been drinking it's not that easy. I didn't have a blanket or a jacket but it shortened my walk home so I hopped the fence. The problem comes in when try to grab the barb wire portion because it is pretty slack. So when you try to swing a leg over your hands shift, you lose your balance and fall head first over the fence likely knocking yourself out.
My stomach went into the barbs on the fence creating 4 two or three inch long cuts. Probably should have got stitches and a shot but I was drunk. I just kept walking home. Still have the scars. The worst part was I was now inside the barb wire field and had to get out. I managed to use the locked gate to climb over on other side which didn't have the barb wire on top.
So remember don't drink and climb barb wire fences.

Hahaha, that's awesome. You're probably the exact kind of guy they are trying to keep out; yet the most likely to try anyway.
