I can do ya one better than that.

I have a brother who was one of those reckless, crazy guys who flirted with
death many times in his life and rarely got hurt. I on the other hand, if I
don't super observe every possible safety rule, gets hurt easily.

When he was about 14, got together with another crazy guy in the general
area and found some old, leaking dynamite at an old logging camp. They
picked it up and drove it home in the back of a pickup. Took it out in a
field in back of the house and blew some holes in the ground near some big
rocks.

The they proceeded to put some dynamite in the hole and roll big rocks onto
the top of the charges. They would then blow up the dynamite and run around
to avoid the rocks as they fell down from the sky. As they continued doing
this, the rocks broke up and became smaller and smaller. Which meant that
they would be harder to see.

And all he got from this was a few small bruises. And no blows to the head.
And he thought it was great fun.
