Not THAT stu- ... wait, nevermind. When I was about 10, my dumb ass decided I wanted to touch the tippy-most-top leaf on a tree that was more than 3 stories up (I knew that it was at least that high because I could see onto the flat roof of a 3-story apartment building nearby). Made it near the top, so I'm proud of that, but then a branch broke under one of my feet and I fell all the way down, landing flat on my back onto grass. I'm very lucky to have survived, and even luckier that it was with no severe injuries. Hurt like hell though.
