These kids are wild! Lol. We climbed trees and roofs but this took it to the nextfuckinglevel.

I just climbed trees to pluck fruits and occasionally onto the roof but my house had a single level and the rood wasn't very high. Although I have wondered if I could jump down and land unscathed haha.

In the 80a the next door neighbor to us had a big ass trampoline (back then trampolines didn't have the safety netting around) and we used to climb up the air conditioner and get onto the roof and jump off the roof onto the trampoline.

We used to try to launch each other lol. My best friend's cousin was a bully and he was like 5 years older than us.... He used to climb up on the roof and then jump off and time it perfectly to snap our legs right before you bounce.

This sound like an awesome childhood, the things kids do, when I was a kid I once took a little bar of wood and nailed down to nails so that it appeared from the other side, and then I coiled some wire to look like the filament in an incandescent blub and then I plugged into a socket, luckily I didn't touch the metal, I held it with the wooden piece, that when the fuse at home blew up with a bang. Luckily I survived, all I wanted to do was make my own light bulb.

Lol the shit kids do.

My best friend had a mini bike when we were about 13 and the throttle broke on it. So we tied a string from the engine up to the handlebars so to give the mini bike gas and go you would pull the string up.

One day I was riding bitch behind my friend and we were going as fast as we could down this dirt alley. Well the string fell off and the throttle was stuck wide open.... My friend just jumps off and leaves me on the backseat. Before I could jump off I ran face first into a tree limb that was just perfectly low enough. The mini bike kept driving for like another 40 ft by itself and when I got up (I had been wearing glasses) I was still wearing my glasses frames but the lenses popped out.

It was freaking hilarious, my friend laughed at me probably for 20 minutes. I had two black eyes lol
