Was visiting the Medical School in Memphis while my brother was interviewing with them... WE were told that the projects were directly behind the school. After a long day me and my brother decided to go grab a bite to eat. Not knowing the area guess where we were within 10 minutes... Nothing screams kill me like driven your dads new Corvette thru an area where its 25 degrees outside around 10pm and people are sitting on couches that are on street corners.

Somehow don't believe these. Would be amazing if either is even half true.

It was fucked. I woke up the next day and my fingers and arms had some deep gashes in them from me clinging to whatever I could for dear life. I was about 5 seconds from not being able to hold on anymore. The cliff was 200-300 feet straight down.
Cool story tho.
Also was shot in the head with a BB gun when I was 12. It went through my brain, bounce off my skull and went back into my brain. Cat-scans look like a checkmark. Anyway, 6 months in the hospital and I had to learn to walk again. -
One time after a big win, I put 100 bucks straight on 838. Separate tickets, no tax. Number came 8.....3.......3 and the mf'r was upside down so it looked like an 8.
Crazy risk, I know. -
I'm going to try and have my gf get a pic of the BB scar right now.

I really don't have any scars from the cliff hanging but my fingers and arms were tore the fuck up from trying to cling to the rock for a long ass time. That shit sucked. If you want to hear a really crazy story I should tell you about the party we left before I fell off the cliff. -
Think I am pretty good at staying away from danger but I did vote in 2000
Was passenger going 148 mph in a Mercedes with Russian plates in Georgia. No idea if the plates would have caused for bad times if we got pulled over
Been too many places when guns have been pulled. Was at an art show at a tattoo shop where two of my best friends had paintings on display. A third good friend who I hadn't seen in a while was there because he had a good friend who worked at the shop and knows my 2 friends well also (4 of us went to Whistler/Vancouver before). Finished my 40 and went to the bar next door with my friend to get a shot. Called my other friend on the phone and said if he came to the bar I'd buy him a shot. He comes and as soon as we put our shots down we hear gun fire. They guy my friend was talking to when I called him over was shot in the head (I had met him a few times including that night but didn't know him well, other 3 all did)
Had a house party about 6 years ago and didn't let some kids in that we didn't know so they pulled out guns. That didn't get them entrance to the party but they ended up robbing girls purses as they walked to/from their cars. Next think I know there was a helicopter over my house
Been a few other places where guns were pulled either at a club or house party. Also was shot at with rubber bullets by LAPD at the 2000 DNC. Some idiots there but giving 15 minutes to leave was pathetic. The entire parking lot was fenced in with one exit the size of a large doorway. Wouldn't say most dangerous times, but one of the most memorable! We were near a corner (11th and fig iirc) when suddenly the police began to charge and fire away

Tbh i thought it was a lead in to a story, not THE story.
holy lurkers! -
I've done tons of different kinds of crazy highway wheelies on my bike and blasted @ 150+ countless times. I'm sure I have other stuff, but the motorcycle shit sticks out as the most dangerous by far.

I mean damn, i got shot in the back of my head by a pump pistol bb gun in my teens from a few feet away jumping down into a creek bed and it bled some but mostly hurt like shit. I climbed up again with my red ryder and shot him twice in the chest as payback. (My bb gun was not very strong anymore from age.)
In hindsight im glad he didnt shoot me again. Lol kids. "Hey lets have a bb gun war!" Doubt that was my idea.
Not on my list of top dangerous things, it just reminded me of that. -
going close to 175 mph in a car a few years back on the interstate. was stoned to the bone with my buddy and he took out his dads tuned 850 hp turbo porsche never felt that way again after that night

Got chased by angry Libyans through the Twin Pines Mall parking lot. Terrifying!

the lone pine mall

#127 on the list. I free climbed a 80* cliff as a teen. one of my buds was actually crying from fear. We respected his fear and did not make fun of him.
That bb gun guy is full of kaka. I got a beef with Daisy BB guns tho. I'm in the back yard by the pool plinking and the fucking barrel falls out of the front end of the gun. The barrel is held in place by the front site with a plastic nub. I mean like wtf? This gun kills small critters and a chuck of plastic rules the barrel? No small critters were killed in this example. -
ran across a busy freeway Bowfinger style

my friend was driving on a really snowy day, and the car skidded and went into a big power box thing on the side of the road. i was in the passenger seat and i came out of it unharmed, but the seat behind me was completely destroyed. the entire window was shattered and there was glass all over the backseat of the car, and a huge dent in the door as well. so basically had we hit it at a slightly different angle so that it hit my window instead of the back window, id be dead. thank god none of the glass hit me either. i remember standing up and walking out of the car and just staring at the wreck that was the backseat and thinking holy shit that was close

I was a member of the "elite 8"...
In college, myself and 7 other fraternity brothers all snuck into one of the dorms of a sig tau member wearing masks around 4am...picked the lock....grabbed him, blindfolded him and gagged him...carried him out and put him in the back of a truck....
we took him to a golf course about 10 miles away and made him call one of his fraternity brothers to come him....he was still blindfolded at the time, had no clue where he was, crying, etc etc...then we told his buddy he was on the 8th hold of the golf course...his mom made him quit the fraternity a week later lol -
damn, fraternities are so cool!
-
wow, you're so cool. congratulations. what a fag

Didn't post it trying to look cool. Obv looking back on that it was by far the dumbest thing I have ever done, risking getting kicked out of college and then my parents murdering me over a college prank.

Also forgot to add this wasn't something condoned by our fraternity...all of us were actually almost kicked out for putting the fraternity in potential lawsuit trouble. Like I said, it was fun at the time, but looking back, dumb. -

spent my 7th to 10th grade years living in a housing development that used to be a farm, with the grandson of the owner of the lands being my best friend. we did a lot of stupid dangerous shit back then but this one stands out.
We scratched a target on a metal farm gate fence like this:

The only difference is that the second row's holes were covered by metal. We shot for a while with a 9mm trying to hit the bullseye until one of the bullets went in between me and my buddy and we heard the snipping sound. We were like whoa the bullets have been bouncing this entire time. We decided that shooting old glass bottles was safer. -
Started to write one of many ridiculous situations that I managed to get myself into back in the day. Didn't realize I forgot a lot of shit. Crazy, crazy shit. *shudders. Man, I'm glad I'm outta all that crazy lifestyle now.
Lived in and ran around Rochester NY during the Shawcross murder spree. Lucky wasn't a victim. knew of a few. Had one gf get run over in bad drug deal ended up losing her leg. Has a prosthetic leg. I'm sure she's tried to pawn it for dope at some point.Another ended up as a witness in a murder trial. Her bf at the time came home covered in blood. Shooting during drug deal gone bad. Just shit like that. Man, drugs are badddd m'kay. I somehow have a Faces of Meth pic of me in my comp(never did meth btw). Must be 80 lbs.. I look about dead .sfgross.
