Worst thing you or a classmate did in school

Sgt Hartman · 03-08-2020 11:17am #1

I think the worst thing I did was when I picked up a classmate half my size and gave him an Undertaker Tombstone onto the concrete floor. He ended up getting a concussion and I got a bollocking from the principal.
The worst thing I saw someone do was fake an epileptic fit. He was expelled for that act of stupidity.

What's the worst thing you done or seen someone do?

Two lads set the guys toilets on fire by accident. They were setting toilet paper on fire and one thought it would be great idea to set the roll in the holder on fire.

In our school, one lad did it on purpose. He was mentally disturbed. It was a bit scary to see the teachers trying to put the fire out.

I went to a mix school. The lads caused more nuisance than the girls but I won't lie, it was entertaining.

One lad kicked his foot through a window of a door because he found out the girl he was seeing in another class was seeing a guy in his class. The guy got punched around and the girl ended up leaving the school after Christmas. That was dramatic I must say. The lad didn't get suspended or expelled. A slap on the wrist and that was that.

A different guy was obviously bored and as one does, decided to smoke weed in the toilets. Nothing out of the ordinary as my school just had that constant smell. He was expelled straight away but I think they were gunning to get rid of him as he was an absolute torment.

It was my last month of school before we let off to do study week before the leaving certificate and one lad wanted to make his mark on the school and give them something to remember. The home ec teacher had her favourites (you know the ones) make chocoalate cakes and brownies and the rest. This lad, was part of the favourites group and well taught it was funny to lace the brownies with weed. The one time I didn't turn up to school and that happened. I was raging I didn't get to see the outcome but from what I heard, the Home Ec teacher was in tears when she found out and the principal, who's wife had just passed away and I'm sure he wasn't in the humour for this carrying on, just strugged his shoulders.

I'm out of school 10 years and last I heard they ended up shutting the school down, not too long after I left, due to unpaid rent (?, I'm not sure if that's true but the actual building has been closed for years) and moved to another location so I'm not sure how it's going now.

Ah but it was fun times though.

Went to a mixed vocational, this was back in the 90s. Quite regularly lads would go down to the payphone on the road and ring in bomb scares. Classes would be evacuated, rooms searched but nothing ever found.

However we had one f$&king idiot who rang it in from the schoo payphone. Guy was arrested, school searched...ultimately he was expelled
Thought it was the normal in schools but talking to other people apparently it wasnt

Pawwed Rig · 03-08-2020 6:25pm

One of the local scummers decided to tell the principal that his mother had cancer so he was going to miss a good portion of the school year to support her. The twat never thought to get his sister in on it (who was also in the school). When a sympathetic teacher asked the sister as to the progress of the cancer in her mother she was 'Wha??'.

Dick got suspended and was subsequently convicted as a drug dealer. Whole family were scum to be fair

Fella pulled a pocket knife and threatened the fella he was sitting next to
Another pulled a lad on a leaning chair knocking him off, then the knocked off fella thumped in class and knocked out the fella who pulled the chair
someone threw a flaming piece of paper in middle of a class
Phantom ****ter - random places in the school was a pile of poo - classroom, gym, hallways/assmemblies etc...never caught

Fella in the year or two above, flung a fifty pence piece at a teacher, got stuck on his neck - and the teacher was never back again

A 50p piece got stuck in his neck? Had your man sharpened the edges first or wha?

Around age 10, a group in class decided to pretend one child had been left behind somewhere after getting back from a trip. They were actually hiding in the classroom. The teacher was older, in her 60s and obviously took it bad. She looked stricken, absolutely terrified and was on the verge of having a panic attack as she told someone to go and notify the principal. I couldn’t have it on my conscience so I told her where the child was- got ostracised as a result which never really fully resolved all the way through second level.

In keeping with the OPs wrestling theme, we used to play WWF in the field at lunch. 4 younger kids had to be the “corners” do that the wrestlers could stand on their backs and do dramatic jumps onto their opponent. I was a corner one day when this guy got his mate in a sleeper hold. He evidently did it too tight for too long, because the guy in the hold went limp. He was unconscious on the ground for a minute while we all panicked, but then he came too. He went home, and when he came back a few days later, the whites of his eyes were all totally blood red, and stayed like that for weeks. Wrestling ended after that.

One guy in my class in 2nd year took out a big hunting knife, cut a lock of hair off the guy sitting in front of him, and proceeded to stab on the desk it in a “satanic” ritual right in the middle of religion class. He was chanting all this gobbledygook, and invoking Satan to kill the guy on a specific date. The substitute teacher we had just told him to cut it out and put the knife away. On the date in question, the target of the curse didn’t turn up for school, and we were all a bit freaked out, but it turned out he just had a cold. The guy doing the ritual shot all his school books up with a crossbow he bought via a mail order catalogue (this was pre-internet days). He was actually a very sound guy, but if it was today he’s be in care or locked up.

A guy in another class got picked up by a group of his mates in his birthday and thrown in top of the coat racks in the cloakroom. One of the hooks got him in the groin and he lost a ball.

I’ve loads of horrendous stories from school, but most of them involved teachers. I’ve 3 kids in primary school now, and the idea that they could experience anything like the stuff I saw going on is just totally unimaginable. Different world now.

dodderangler · 03-08-2020 6:54pm

Had an irish teacher with a lisp and a dodgy eye and really long fingers who would talk weird at us. Anyway I threw a trout at him ( was fishing the day before).
Bevause he had no idea who was looking at he didnt know who threw it and I got away with it.
Not proudest moment in me life.

harr · 03-08-2020 6:54pm

Had a traveller with us in 6th class , he was a few years older than us and a big lump of a lad but decent enough and was always handy at the more physical school yard games.. ..anyway we were taught by an out and out bully of a Christian brother who liked inflicting pain for fun that all stopped the day he thumped the traveller in the side of the head.. he barely flinched and jumped up and proceeded to kick lumps Out of the teacher, gave him a good going over and then just left the class room didn’t see him or Christian brother again.
It was never acknowledged by the school or spoken about only between us in the class..while it was a bad assault I did enjoy seeing the fear in his face..

03-08-2020 6:56pm

The whole football field had ‘*****’ burnt into it with weed killer. I won’t speculate as to the culprit.

duffysfarm · 03-08-2020 6:57pm

We used to have a thing called "polling" it was in the yard outside the school and involved a group of lads and the baskeball shoot. They would grab a fellow student and charge at the upright pole of the basketball shoot with the person laying flat while been carried but his two legs held apart by part of the group. His testicles would then come in close contact with the pole thus the term polling. Believe it or not but it usually only happend to you if you were popular!

There was a guy in the year behind me in Primary school that got put out in the corridor for messing in class. This bollix of a trainee Christian brother - who was probably only 19 - that used to hang around our class far too much came along and saw yer man outside the door. Instead of leaving the kid to his punishment, he gave him a slap across the head as he walked past. The kid jumped on the Brother, knocked him to the ground and laid kicks into him, breaking his arm. No action was ever taken against the kid, who obviously attained legend status immediately. And the Brother, while he still hung around being a prïck (with a cast on his arm), had his cough softened significantly.

I get suspended for farting in a mechanical drawing class.

I got suspended for getting a hair cut.

I also got suspended for drawing tits on the blackboard.

All fairly tame.

Grab All Association · 03-08-2020 9:18pm

During non-uniform Fundraising day in school, in the art class I put poster paint on all the cheap plastic stacking chairs. All my classmates pants were destroyed. Felt sorry for the ones who were unaware it was a non-uniform day and turned up in their £60+ uniform The chairs would have dried on paint splatters already so nobody noticed it

Sgt Hartman · 12-08-2020 9:57pm

I remember one classmate squeezed another classmate's nutsack until he bled. The teacher screamed at him outside the class for doing it, roaring "DO YOU REALISE THE DAMAGE YOU DONE??"

Luckily no permanent damage was done as the classmate who had his nuts squeezed is now 40 with 4 kids

Potential-Monke · 12-08-2020 10:05pm

There was a lad in our school, always in trouble, just didn't want to be there at all. In fifth year, he decided he had enough. There was one teacher, we called her Pocahontas because she looked the exact same, crazy attractive and no doubt the image of many a teens wet dreams. Anyway, on a certain day he decided he had enough, waited for the class with her. Got up half way through the class, said out loud that he was sick of school, went up to her, grabbed her by the tits and walked out the school gates never to return. This was mid-90's so nothing more came of it. He's been in and out of jail since, not even sure if he's alive anymore tbh!

ExMachina1000 · 12-08-2020 10:13pm

Its not really bad as in violent but if I was caught I would have been in serious bother.

I cheated in my leaving cert. Almost all subjects if I remember

Kylta · 12-08-2020 10:48pm

When I was in primary school a teacher had a fit in the class, while he was on the ground two pupils rained kicks into him while another robbed his wallet. They didn't realise.that a Christian brother from another class that was directly overlooking our class seen the whole thing. Needless to say they were beaten senseless. Their all dead now. One was stabbed to dead and the other two died from overdoses in later years.

Also in primary school one winter there was heavy snow fall, the school at the back of our school decided too have a snowball with our school. But the didn't realise that our school were wrapping snow around stones and rocks. That led to the guards calling to the school.

In the secondary school I was in, the maths teacher was almost raped in the womens toilets by two pupils, they were actually arrested. Another two pupils tried to robbed the vice principals car, they were suspended.
The science teacher was stupid or too trusting that he left the class alone for twenty minutes, the classroom was on the second floor all his glass test tubes went sailing out the windows, the school never replaces them.
I have loads of memories of my time in school, but one that always sticks out is. There was this chap(we became good friends in later years) who was sent over from another school he was two or three years older than the normal class and nearly twice the size. And way I always loving a challenge, got into it one day in class(slagging) and realising that after school he was going to battered me beyond belief, I took the huge t-square that was on the mechanical drawing board and after a few whacks eventually broke it over his head, but alas it didn't do the job because the big fu¢ker used me as a punch bag. Needless to say we were both suspended.
I must admit I hated school when I was young but looking back it really was quite adventurous.
The two above school cease to exist anymore

ArnoldJRimmer · 12-08-2020 11:20pm

I went to all boys school and frankly, they were fcuking animals. Someone took a dump in another lads schoolbag, but they couldn't prove it was him.

And in line with some of the posts here, a lad got expelled for deliberately setting fire to the toilets. Wasn't his first attempt in getting expelled. I felt bad for him as he was bullied, and he clearly came from a troubled family. Even one of the teachers called him out one day in front of everyone as his uniform was filthy (as it usually was).

unhappys10 · 12-08-2020 11:29pm

We had one teacher in secondary school who was a total pushover, couldn't control any of the classes, felt sorry for him.

One day one of the lads climbed a metal pipe (old building) that ran up the wall in the corner behind the door.
There was a high ceiling, enough room to climb to the top and sit there above the door.
In comes the teacher, closes the door behind him and your man dives off the pipe onto the teacher knocking him to the ground, got up and ran to his seat. Teacher didn't see who did it and of course none of us said.

Same lad/teacher were in PE.
Your man had a basketball in his hand and the teacher asked him for the ball. He says do you really want it sir, teacher said yes of course and he kicked it full force into his face, dunno how he didn't break nose or teeth.

I stole a bottle of mercury out of a lab and poured it into toilet bowl, it was still there at the bottom of the bowl when I was leaving 2 years later.

Not proud of this one but there was a loner girl and a gay lad who maybe didn't realise he was gay yet.
Got a Valentines day card and filled it out from him to her and put it in her bag, dunno why I did it looking back, would take it back if I could.

Sgt Hartman · 12-08-2020 11:45pm

I also remember my first year Geography teacher who was from a traveller background
She used to get horrendous abuse from students who used to shout "MAN" at her and mock her accent. She was gone after I started 2nd year.

12-08-2020 11:58pm

set a plastic chair on fire with the class clown sitting in it.
feckt bromine into other chemicals because sodium was locked in the fume cupboard, the school had to be evacuated.
looked up the stand in teachers dress with a mirror on sports day!!

These stories are hilarious.

Are ye sure these weren't Borstals ye attended.

I went to school in the nineties and can't honestly say anything as bad as this happened in my place.

Dr. Kenneth Noisewater · 13-08-2020 2:33am

Some lads in the year below me shat in one lad's schoolbag, that was pretty heinous.

I remember one teacher keeping a few lads in class during lunchtime for detention and basically challenging one of them to hit him. Your man promptly stood up and decked him. Wouldn't have been a rough type either.

Apart from that, the usual crap that goes on in an all boys' school in a working class area, bog roll on fire in the toilets, lads fighting and whatnot.

FanadMan · 13-08-2020 3:37am

Maybe 2nd or 3rd year mechanical drawing, was the last class on a Friday. Some of the lads were shooting paper bullets from elastic bands at each other, normal sort of stuff.
One lad just managed to duck in time and the bullet hit the teacher in the chest. "Right, class is over. Everybody pack up you stuff and go. Not you B*********** (censored myself in case he ever reads this lol), you stay behind".

I was last out of the class and saw the teacher lamping the lad in the jaw and sending him over the desk behind. The teacher was a former Ulster boxing champion and despite being near retirement age, was still an animal. Nothing ever came of it - by all accounts, the lad held up his hands and said "fair play".

Another lad in my year was a real headcase - had a very difficult and strange family life.....father regularly in court etc. He was extremely intelligent but hated school. Was constantly in trouble and hung out with the scummers. Anyway, the last day of school before the exams he was stopped at the school gates carrying a large can of petrol. Supposedly he wanted to burn down the place. Sadly, he's dead now which is such a shame as he could have done anything - very artistic and smart.

radiata · 13-08-2020 4:47am

We did a lot of messing around in 4th and 5th year in school back in the late 90s.
We left a window slightly open in the science lab, then broke into it after school and stole all the sodium out of it.
Brought the sodium into school the next day and threw a lump of it into the toilet at lunch time. It was like a bomb going off in there, I don't know how the toilet didn't explode. The whole place was full of smoke and some poor young lad taking a dump in the toilet beside it.

Another time one of the lads got a hold of the woodwork lab key and got it cut at lunchtime. After school they brought the portable goalposts from the pitch and set them up inside the woodwork room.

We brought in weed killer another day and drew a big cock on the hurling pitch with it, came out perfect after a few days. You could see it as you drove by as the road went uphill. The principal went daft and threatened to cancel the grad until the culprits were found. A girl in the class then squealed on us and a bunch of us got expelled, but this was later reduced to suspension when parents got involved. We glued the padlock on the squealers locker, she replaced it so we glued it again. She didn't replace it then, so we threw fish in it.

Another friend threw fireworks in the bin in the assembly hall when the place was full of teachers and students. Another suspension.
Threw an apple about 20 yards across the hall at lunchtime and bounced off the teachers head

Heighway61 · 13-08-2020 7:02am

At the end of the school year each class would be photograhed at the front door of the school. The teachers would be photographed last. Some fifth years, who were finishing that year, prepared buckets of sludge - bottles of sauce, milk, eggs etc, and peed in the buckets to add flavour. When the teachers lined up at the door the fifth years were at the windows of a classroom on the floor above and emptied the buckets down over the teachers. The were a mess. They might have been leaving in a few days but were still expelled.

Dognapper · 13-08-2020 8:58am

A guy in my class wrote f,,,k in his own feces on the toilet wall , wasn’t until years later we found out that he was being sexually abused by his father and apparently playing with your own sh1t is a warning sign of that.

Someone else broke into the canteen after hours and was immediately caught when they found his name spray painted on one of the walls.

We paid a homeless guy to sit into one of our classes before all of us he then tried to attack the teacher.

A father of one of the students ran over some over some kids foot and then tried to hit him for damaging his car.

That's shocking!! It actually reminds me of the time I was doing a training programme in Sligo IT back in 2004. I went into a toilet cubicle there one day and there was swear words written in excrement on the walls of the cubicle. It was a fairly regular occurrence for their weeks I was there and I was wondering to myself what type of individual would do something like that.

SouthWesterly · 13-08-2020 11:14am

You were all some lot of scumbags in school weren't you?

Most we ever did in school was talking in class or cheating on a spelling test. The 70's were a different breed.

joeguevara · 13-08-2020 11:22am

The best ever event in our school happened when I left. Mobile phones were after becoming more popular and one of the guys found out the head teachers number. He pranked him to say that he was from TG4 and were coming to do an expose on the senior rugby team in a number of days time. The Head Teacher went into overdrive, buying new tracksuits for the senior rugby team, planting flowers and shrubs at the front steps, ensuring that the front driveway was freshly cut on each side, eagles painted on front gates and every teacher, member of staff and student in their sunday best. The student texted that they will be arriving at x'oclock and will be filming immediately, everyone was made stand outside and after 45 minutes of waiting, he realised it was a prank and blew his nut. The students involved were suspended but will forever go down as legends.

13-08-2020 11:26am

Not as crazy as the stories in here, but one thing I always remember from Primary school, was "shítball"
Our school was in the middle of the city, and the play area was just a massive gravel area.
The gates to the school would be op[en to students from around 8 in the morning, and classes would start at 9. If you got in early, you'd kick a football around in the "back yard"
Every now and again, we'd come into school in the morning, and a homeless person would found asleep in a corner of the yard.
Then once or twice a year, you'd come into school in the morning, and there would be a massive shíte in the middle of the yard.
Someone would always get a plastic football, and roll it around in the *shít, until the ball was covered, and then shítball would begin

The purpose of the game, was to wallop the ball in any direction around the yard, in hope of hitting someone. Everyone was on guard. You knew where the ball was, and you stayed well clear of it. Occasionally, it would come into your general area, and you needed to quickly decide if you wanted to take the risk to attempt to kick it, and open yourself up to getting hit, or if you want to leg it, to avoid getting hit.

Anyway, in my 5 years in this Primary school, I never got hit, but I remember this one lad who was on my class. Tall, skinny lad. Definitely a bit simple, from a poor enough background, but never caused trouble, and had a few friends. This one winter morning, shítball was in play. And it was one of those heavy plastic footballs. It was the type of morning, where getting hit with this ball would leave a stinger for weeks. Nevermind what it would do, while covered in shíte.
What happened next, was like a tv show, at least in my memory. Tall lad, seemed to be standing directly in front of me. Maybe 30 feet away. I looked to my right, and one of the travellers had just put his foot right through shítball, and it was travelling at a speed, directly at tall lad. Except he was oblivious. I seemed to look him right in the eye, as the ball clattered into the side of his face at full power. In my memory, everything slows down, and i see the ball ripple through the side of his face as pieces of shít explode all over him.
There is a moment of absolute silence, before we hear the loudest scream\cry erupt from his mouth.

unhappys10 · 13-08-2020 11:38am

I remember 2 incidents involving eggs.

For anyone birthday they got an egging after school.

There was a shop/petrol station down the street and to get home one of the lads whose birthday it was had to pass by.

I was there ahead of him, went into the shop to buy eggs and as I was coming to the door here was your man legging it past the shop. He was about half way across the length of the forecourt and rapidly approaching the point where he'd be gone out of sight.

I had 2 choices, run after him or take a shot.

I dropped my bag, opened the egg carton and grabbed one, positioned myself.

I let the egg rip, as it was flying through the air I roared "HEY HOGAN".
I can see this all in slow motion. He turned his head to look back at me while still running, approaching the wall that would have him out of sight.

As he turned the egg was flying through the air. It hit him square between the 2 eyes as his head fully turned back.

Ya couldn't make this up, it was a one in a million shot, I'd never be able to repeat it and probably more chance of winning the lotto than it happening in the first place.

My luck didn't hold out though, the following year, same lad, same location, he was standing chatting to someone, I fecked an egg at him and hit a girl 10 feet to his left, right between the eyes, totally missed but didn't miss at the same time

She had shell in her eyes and everything, total accident but I removed myself from the scene fairly lively. Probably should have stayed to see was she alright :pac:

ongarboy · 13-08-2020 11:55am

In my all boys CBS secondary school back in the 80s, you would be given the bumps on your birthday. 30 or more lads grabbing you and tossing you as high into the air as possible, usually way more times than your actual age to prolong the torment. I got it done to me probably every year because my birthday was usually the first week of the school year and the lads were itching for a victim after the summer break.

Once, they did it to this guy and on the last bump/toss, they all ran and let him drop 10 or 12 feet onto the concrete. I can still hear the bang his body made hitting the ground!!. Remarkably he seemed to be unhurt and got up and walked away from it without complaining.

Different times!

md23040 · 13-08-2020 12:06pm

I posted this before but still chuckle about the prick...

At a dump of a boarding school in the early 1980’s, run by a bunch of satanic priests, their only mission in life was making ours an absolute misery. The worst by far was the dean of the school, who in charge of discipline and he considered his role to be one of legitimately battering as many pupils as he could on a daily basis. As such he was hated completely by all boarders who frequently crossed his path.

To cut a long story short he got a new Fiat car, his pride and joy (even though it was low end), and less than one week into ownership, a merry band of rebels got up in the middle of the night, for some kind of revenge and spent a number of hours jumping for joy on top of the car and pulverising the roof to a sorry state of its former self.

Basically, without much evidence to go on other than any of the 200 plus hate-filled boarders could be culpable, he decided on a Mexican stand off and banned evening rec time. Instead everyone had to gather standing in the hall and no none could leave for 90 minutes until the culprits admitted to their guilt. Given this frame of mind he was in it for the long haul, as was clear from his temperament on the third evening saying it would last indefinitely until he found out.

Anyway, that evening there were confessions and Darth Vader himself was in the driving seat. One of the lads went in and confessed with remorse from the bottom of his heart. Next thing a deep raspberry-flushed psychopath jumped out of the confessional box screamed incoherently, then after about a minute of utter silence for all gathered to watch, he got back inside to offer absolution and hold to the oath of silence henceforth about the matter. The guys were absolute legends and had a few weeks left before leaving the school in final year.

Sirsok · 13-08-2020 12:10pm

We went down to Superquinn on a Friday to buy fish.

We placed them in various parts of the school, under teacher podiums, on top of black board lights(so they would heat up), in any free lockers. By the time we returned on Monday it was unbearable and by lunchtime we had to evacuate certain parts of the building.

Twas great

grayzer75 · 13-08-2020 12:15pm

Typical 'hardman' teacher pushing his weight around in class when we were in 4th year, kept picking on one particular lad. Went on for months until the lad flipped and swung a box at the teacher which resulted in the lad going to a new school and the teacher to hospital with a broken eye socket. Fun times were had at the Christian Brothers School.......

As he turned the egg was flying through the air. It hit him square between the 2 eyes as his head fully turned back.

Ya couldn't make this up, it was a one in a million shot, I'd never be able to repeat it and probably more chance of winning the lotto than it happening in the first place.
:

I had the exact same experince, but with an apple. Yer man was way down a laneway - he was a neighbour, and he had thrown a punch at me as he ran past me. I threw an apple I was eating in a big arc, and called his name. Just as he turned around, it hit him right in the nose. It came from above, so he didn't even see it coming. Like you said, the whole thing seemed to happen in slow motion - apple flying, him turing, apple explodes on his nose in a blast of blood and apple bits. Complete fluke, no way I could ever repeat it.

Good memories

I get such a laugh remembering it, great stories to be able to tell!

There was a gig in the canteen/tuck shop area of my school and the equipment was left in there overnight. 2 guys in my year broke in, pissed, and nicked a load of it, amps and everything. They dragged the stuff away to one of their houses which bordered the school field.

What they hadn't figured out, in their drunken state, was that the ground was wet and muddy and they made clear tracks right to where they'd stashed the gear.

Didn't exactly take Poirot to find the culprits...

Burnt the school down twice. Closing it for months.

Smashing the windows.

Knocking down walls between classrooms.

We barely even had tables or chairs that weren't snapped into bits or driven through windows/the ceiling.

Set a prefab on fire.

Numerous teacher assaults.

Horrific bullying beyond anything you could imagine that was rampant in the school for years and made people kill themselves. School turned a blind eye to it all.

Couple of stabbings.

Numerous teachers cars vandalised.

Toilets and sinks smashed to bits.

Animals tortured/killed in the yard for the craic.

To name a few.
