Kids can find some incredibly random things to do! Which, when you think about it, isn't such a bad thing. Experience is the greatest teacher of all, and getting yourself into sticky situations when young can give you a lesson in life that you will never forget. As long as your death wish lets you make it through to adulthood in one piece of course!

Twitter user @MotherOfDoggons asked people to share some of the stupid things they did as kids, and some of the real stories will make you wonder how these funny kids managed to survive this far. From starting fires and stabbing themselves for attention, to eating grass to prove that they are part horse, let's just hope that these crazy kids have learned from their hilariously stupid experiences. And if not then hey, at least they have funny things to tell. Scroll down below to check out the funniest tweets selected by Bored Panda, and share your own stories in the comments!

Of course that's dumb. You should've used the Johnson's Baby Shampoo one.

    Hahaha, I always got Play Dooh for Saint Nicolas at my school. My mother dreaded that time of year. Because for some (creative) reason I always smeared the stuff in the living room carpet. As I also loved to make drawings on the bottom of the plate that was our salon table, instead of using the blackboard. I probably found drawing while laying on the floor more relaxing. And drawing gnomes on (again) the carpet in our living room was also my speciality ( in all shades of pink & purple).

    Well, to be fair, the whole "you have to wear clothing to preschool" rule is pretty dumb....

    Why do children have such a strong death wish? Is there any other animal out there who has to constantly save its young from killing themselves?

    I went through a short phase where I was pretty sure I could fly if I just tried hard enough. I gave it up pretty quickly when none of my flying experiments worked.

    Depends on OP's age, I'm 30 and when I was around 5 I remember we had a TV with the channel buttons on a side of the screen, there wasn't a remote for it

    My sister did the same at 4 (about 31 years ago)..she made a stair with drawers..everything fell including television (an old one..heavy)..luckily she has been projected away and not crushed by the furniture (hard to move, you can imagine how heavy it was).. during her youth years she has been a tornado , I think she has a very busy and efficient guardian angel..

    I survived cricket bat to head, tripping over socker ball and wacking head on metal bench (left a dint!) and more.

    My kids tipped a 3 drawer wardrobe by climbing in it! luckily about half an inch of it landed on the stair gate (which I then realised my son could open) & they landed on a beanbag! I had my Dad fix them to the walls that day!

    I was 3 and in my Dad’s she’d with my brother he was six. Dad had some yellow paint the kind they paint the lines on airport runways with, my brother painted my new snowsuit with me in it head to toe. I walked back to the house I have no memory of what my Mom did.

    A guy once asked me if I have a hard skull.💀 In fact, I do. He knew that simply by looking at my head!! This story had me recalling that conversation. Some of us have literal hard heads that break TVs...lol.
