This is where my Brother and I found our spending money.

I had a BB gun when I was 4 or 5. I shot match sticks out of it at snakes. I learned to NOT pull the trigger unless the cocking lever way all the way up. It hit my fingers HARD when I pulled the trigger.

I could go on and on and on this thread. One more.....My Brother and I built a "hotrod" with derby racer wheels. The steering wheel was a wagon wheel with a broomstick crammed in it. Ropes wrapped around the broomstick ran to the front axel for steering. We built a ramp so we could jump a fire. No, our folks were not at home when we built the fire, and I still have back issues that I'm sure the jumping didn't help.

Grew up in the Bahamas...
Climbed coconut tress... Had to JUMP out a couple times because of attacking Bees.
At about 12, dove off a cliff at about 40 feet for $3... $2 was from my father....
When I was learning to water ski... Ran into a side of a yacht because I didn't know how to stop
I can go on and on

Ohio blue tip matches with a pin through the head shot through an air rifle. Target hit, and ignition...

I don’t even where to begin. I should be dead by today’s standards.

That about covers it for me, too. I should be dead or in jail.
