What's the most hilariously stupid thing you've seen someone do?

Mine isn't great but surely AH has some good ones

A good few years ago we went to my Nan's house on Easter, and we were all having dinner and there wasn't enough room at the table in the dining room so me and a few of my cousins were eating in the sitting room, which my Nan used to sleep in because she couldn't get up the stairs anymore.

There weren't any tables so we just put our plates on our laps, until my brother had the wonderful idea of finding somewhere to rest his plate on. After a few seconds of observing his surroundings he found a "suitable" surface; my grandmother's commode which was still in use. The thought of it makes me queasy :eek:

I've never let him forget it, the manky idiot

I saw a complete gob****e hand a lit birthday candle to a one year old.
Of course she tried to eat it and burned her mouth...

Saw a guy opening a window on a freezing cold day in Winter. There were a few sun rays breaking through though. When asked why the hell was he opening the window, he said that he was letting the heat of the breaking sun rays come inside!!

Around the time when microwaves were starting to be seen in work canteens etc, I saw somebody cause a comical explosion.

There was a free pool table in the canteen where my dad used to work. As a young fella I used to cycle over the odd evening for a few games and a cuppa. Anyway, this canteen had recently taken delivery of a brand new industrial-looking machine. There was a man working there who had slightly misunderstood how a microwave oven worked, and more importantly, what it could be used to cook, and what not to put in it. He made a great show of how this technological miracle could cook food in next to no time, and proceeded to demonstrate this by filling a pot with water, popping in an egg, and pressing start....

:pac:

Watched as my 15 stone, 5ft10 friend dived off a pier in West Cork, only to perform the most horrific belly flop that I have ever seen or heard.

The sound out of it was just remarkable. The red mark, covering pretty much the entirety of this stomach, was another glorious site to behold. I'm still laughing now, 7 years on.

I know someone who insists upon opening all windows during a thunderstorm. The reasoning being that if the lighting comes in one window it will go out another.

I witnessed one of my friends trying to swing across a gripe on a rope, only for the branch the rope was tied onto to snap when he was halfway across and he landed into a pile of nettles.

Hilarious.

Sorry. It's the country coming out of me. A gripe would be kind of like a wide gap between a ditch and the road. Or the "riverbed" at either side of a stream.

The perils of country life.

Working late one evening, group of us phoned in an order to the local chippy. One fella was gonna go and collect it on his bicycle. The chippy was at the back of a housing estate, he could cycle across a green, making it quicker than driving the whole way round the block.

Anyway, while he was in the shop, the heavens opened and it started pouring rain. He took off his raincoat, wrapped it around the food, and pedalled back. Food was grand, but he had to sit in wet clothes for another 4 hours before he went home.

You're right! It would! Does that put me on the culprit list of the title of this thread? :-(

was in a petrol station the M4 on my way to london town about 2 years ago. there is an SUV with a girl behind the wheel and a guy filling it up. He pays, hops in, she drives off...about 3 meters when she realizes that the guy has left the nozzle in the tank and she has just pulled the pipe off of the pump. Needless to say she wasn't too happy with that chap.

My pal did a run to McDonald's for about ten of us a few years back. Everyone was stoned and the munchies had creeped in real bad. Bob went to the drivethrough, ordered six metric tons of poisonous goodness, paid the bill, and then drove straight past the collection window and back to the house empty handed.

"What?" was all he said when he walked into the room and we all stared at him in horror and disbelief. "What?"

Get off your horse. Half of Ireland is driving around stoned ffs. I don't do it anymore myself but I've covered thousands and thousands of miles in every type of vehicle whilst mildly stoned at least.
You sure you're young?!

What's the most hilariously stupid thing you've seen someone do?
