The stupidity of teenagers

2011 Reader Submission
Pending Acceptance

During 2010 at my school we did many stupid things, used students as gridiron kickstands,played "shin kicking games" and many more acts of stupidity that surpass common sense, butthe dumbest acts were not performed by my friends (somehow!) and instead were left up to a group of people I have knwon since primary school who began what is known as "stunt jumping" which involved jumping off the roof of a 20 meter high YMCA gymnasium which is part of our school (except monday mornings, their jump consisted of, jumping off the roof, narrowly missing a chain lnk fence and landing on loose gravel while performing flips.

Now you expect this story to be about one of these chaps and how he almost necked himself, but no! instead I am citing the actions of "smurf"-named after an horriffic hair dye incident! who reckoned he could do a flip off the steel hockey net next to the YMCA fence and land, in half the height of the YMCA- telling us and his girlfriend that he "was sure it could be done" he climbed up to the top of the nets and stood with his back to the fence, taking a deep breath he jumped, sailing backwards he made a half turn before he hit the ground-hard, just missing a sandpit! I paused to see if he was okay before I started laughing.... he lived with only a sore neck and brusied ego

This also brings to mind when two friends decided to have a jousting match- with roadcones, I turned around in time to see both of them lying on the ground screaming the with two roadcones that they used as helemts lying nearby.

Note: I would not have submitted these but for three reasons 1:I'm bored 2:It's an astounding lack of judgement and 3: no-one was really hurt and they're slightly funny
