as of last night, i have. never though i'd be dumb enough to do such a thing but.......
i was fixing my beloved 10 year old recliner. had it flipped up, the footrest fully extended, my head and arms halfway into the underside of it when it decides to roll back and hit the footrest lever and send the steel framework of the footrest mechanism smashing down on my head. it hit my temple and slammed my eyebrow into another steel piece and wedged me there. took me a few seconds to realize what happened and regain enough conciousness to get myself out

Seeing this is the day we all admit something stupid thta happened to use, i'll give you one that happened to me this morning,
I was taking down an oak tree in the center of an appartment complexe, witch means that I climb up chop pieces by pieces off, letting them to fall to the foot of the tree and not dammage any property,
I was about and 1 1/2 into the job and had cut back all the branches to the trunk, leaving just the trunk of the tree if you are following, right, i was only useing a ladder for this job, witch means that i tie in onto the top of the tree, i had cut the tree down to a hight that i could cut it from the base and there was no problme with dammaging anything, well i get down and put all my climbing equitment away, and wind up all the ropes, etc.( i won't go into details, lol)
WHne i get back to the site, i trie to take the ladder away to put it back in the van and find it is still tied onto the tree (great situation to be in when u have 50 people watching you from ballconys and on the ground, lol) so i just say **** it and i just went up without anything, and when i'm up there, who do i see pull up beside my van, oh yes, my boss, that is what i call perfect timing, so i had the embaressment of trieing to take down a tied ladder infront of 50 or 60 people and then i have the embaressment of been shouted at in front of the very same people, lol great day, lol

i had a finger stuck in a bottle neck, for almost an hour at work.
and once we nailed the 'work' shoes of a collegue of ours to a plank of wood in the workshop.
But the best was when i was due to take some foreign cash from work to the bank.
The procedure required a manager's presence. As the manager had squatted in front of the safe (it was one about 2ft high from the floor) to fill in the relevant paperwork on the top, i locked it and went on my way......................he then tried to stand upright and could not..................i had locked his neck tie in the door and he could not even slip it out coz both sides were caught in the door.
when i got back he was without his neck tie and a mutilated piece of fabric on his desk coz he had to cut it off with a scissors . I was

I remember when i was away on school trip some years ago and we were having a party and were all pissed, smoking what ever lite up as you can imagine. we were doing thin in the middle of a football pitch btw.
At about 2 or 3 we decided that we should be making our way back to the dorm seeing we had a 7 am start the next morning, so we all stagered back and i noticed a friend of mine, Jordan (him) was having incredible trouble, so i thought up this genious idea, we all got back and he just drove onto his bed, tried to get his clothes off and went staight asleep, so i told the lads to all strip to there boxers and i turned the lights out and went to get the guy that was watching on us and told him about the pranks, this was about 1/2 hour after getting back from the pitch btw.
He comes back with me and turns on the light as says it is time to get up, as if it was 7 am, we all get out of our beds with our boxers and and he is there stunned, totally wasted and having to get up, we all got dressed and he struggled to get up and get dressed, goes down stairs and over to the cantine and tries to open the door not even noticing that the lights weren't even on. and it is at that moment he decides to look at his watch and looks back at us hanging out the windows and lets off the most inpresive series of insults i have ever herd, lol
The next morning when he gets up he was cool about it,

i once locked the cubicle doors for the mens toilets shut from the inside and then climbed out after placing a pair of shoes in each cubicle
after 8 hours of numerous people going into the toilet,the main boss went in(for the third time)
he was beginning to get a bit pissed off so he looked under the cubicle door and saw the pair of shoes...he asked the non existant person indside..."are you ok"
after asking several times and getting no reply he eventually went and got another senior manager to check...this one being the more athletic decided to climb over and saw the pair of shoes in each cubicle
needless to say they were not amused by the prank and vowed to sack the person responsible
im still there and have done it several times since as well

Okay, the entire(and hilarious) tale of one of my geat drinking binges takes a little too long to tell in full(a bit daft coming from me, I know) - But here's the gist of it:-
Weekend: I win 500 qud in a football bet.
Monday Night: I arrive back in Dublin, go out on the town an get twisted
Tuesday Morning(early): Get into the office and open a bottle of gin and a bottle of wine, commence drinking for the day
Tuesday Evening: Decide to buy more wine so go for another two bottles
Tuesday 9.45pm: Decide that I haven't quite had enough and so I head with my mates to the offy for more drink, unfortunately its closed and so we head into town to one of my friends houses where we lay our hands on more wine....the night runs long and at 2am Rob and I leave.
Wed Early Hours: Myself and Rob track down a dingy hole that serves until 5-30-we left it at 6am, the last people leaving the last licensed premises in the country...we walk across town to an early bird bar that opens at 6-30am
Some of the days events:
*encounter with weird man in early bird bar-possibly related to crimelord
*negotiate several deals with city hotels for huge reception bookings
*arguments with shirt salesmen
*act an idiot in several jewellry stores
*get kicked out of several pubs
*fell asleep in the street
*get propositioned as a relay for a drug dealer
after the drug dealer encounter I return its 8pm and I return to my friend Rob in the Capitol Bar...I order another two cocktails and head to the bathroom. I fall asleep and wake up with a little vomit down the side of my (once)beautiful white shirt-my jeans got a touch too...worried that the epic session was at an end I decided to clean my clothes in the sink, so I strip off and begin washing my clothes in the men's room. To my dismay one of the barmen walks into the toilet and catches me stark naked(I'm a commando)! We were promptly tossed out of the pub....
