For a bet....?
 

I have just finished reading the book by Tony Hawks about his travels around Ireland with a fridge........something he did for a bet of £100.
It made me think.......I wonder what daft/crazy/mad things have any of you done for a bet....or a dare. Were you successful?

I have to say at the outset........I have never done anything for a bet......I can't even think of anything I have done for a dare either.......what a sheltered life I have led.:)

Yes Willow, I did enjoy the book.....as you say it could only happen in Ireland......feted because of a fridge.
But I never believed that you lot wouldn't spill the beans on your successes.
Sparkologist,it is no good you telling me you succeeded, without giving more relevant details.
I want to know what you got up to.....you can change the names to protect the innocent. :)

During training at RAF Abingdon I bet my friend that I could jump out of a plane without a parachute. The bet was for £5. The bet was struck and without parachute I jumped out of the plane.
There was no stipulation that the plane had to be in the air.
I won my fiver and he went berzerk.

I once agreed to jump over a huge brook for a bet. I managed to land on the other side without getting wet, however I landed with one leg twisted and I kneed myself in the face with the other.
Had a nasty fracture but they thought I was joking so they all left me and I had to walk from ossy to accy on it, took about 9hrs. Went to the hospital the next day as I was too stubborn to ring an ambulance and I had a potted leg for 6weeks and gained the nickname hopalong.

Funny looking back at it though. The bad thing was that it was just a bet for no reward, so I gained absolutely nothing!

sorry disagree jen this is a family forum.:p

Re: For a bet....?
 

I would always accept a bet!

I have learned my lesson many times over - if someone says 'I bet you....' I stick my fingers in my ears and sing 'la, la, la...'

Very wise Gayle....very wise!

Cashy, isn't it something that you could clean up and make suitable for a family forum? I do so hate half a tale......or the temptation of one.
