Publish Not your original work? Add source Even the brightest of us are not immune to doing dumb things. Call it a brain fart, a fog in the decision-making department, a moment of irrational impulse, or a 'whatever happens, happens'-type of mindset where for a fraction of second, everything kinda makes sense, even the things that normally don't. So when someone asked "What is the dumbest thing you've ever done for absolutely no reason?" unbeknownst to them, Pandora's box of some entertaining stories was opened. Think of putting gum in your eye just because your dad told not to do that at whatever cost, or opening the door of a moving car just because you wondered what it'd feel like. Basically, below is one hell of a ride, both hilarious and very relatable. Psst! After you're done, be sure to check out our previous post on the dumbest things that pretty smart people have done. This post may include affiliate links. #1 Someone asked me what time it was and I lifted and rotated my wrist so I could look at my watch. I was holding an iced tea and just poured the whole thing into my lap.
I wasn’t wearing a watch.
I didn’t even own a watch.

Immediately after I remember thinking “holy s**t I actually got it in my mouth and broke the string”. Then I realized the string was still there, but half my front tooth wasn’t.
As the best man at my wedding said “the attic string went fishing for idiots and caught one” Jsn1986 , Jeswin Thomas Report Final score: 417points POST Jo Johannsen Jo Johannsen Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago Best man strikes again! 112 112points reply View more comments #3 I chopped an aerosol paint can in half with an axe.

40 Times People Did Something So Dumb For Absolutely No Reason And Shared It In This Thread
Liucija Adomaite andJustinas Keturka
Publish Not your original work? Add source Even the brightest of us are not immune to doing dumb things. Call it a brain fart, a fog in the decision-making department, a moment of irrational impulse, or a 'whatever happens, happens'-type of mindset where for a fraction of second, everything kinda makes sense, even the things that normally don't. So when someone asked "What is the dumbest thing you've ever done for absolutely no reason?" unbeknownst to them, Pandora's box of some entertaining stories was opened. Think of putting gum in your eye just because your dad told not to do that at whatever cost, or opening the door of a moving car just because you wondered what it'd feel like. Basically, below is one hell of a ride, both hilarious and very relatable. Psst! After you're done, be sure to check out our previous post on the dumbest things that pretty smart people have done. This post may include affiliate links. #1 Someone asked me what time it was and I lifted and rotated my wrist so I could look at my watch. I was holding an iced tea and just poured the whole thing into my lap.
I wasn’t wearing a watch.
I didn’t even own a watch.
