What is the dumbest thing you have ever done?

["couldbecousin"]

I worked on my mother-in-law's oven without turning off the power first.

If it was a gas oven it would either have turned out alright or been a blast.

It was electric, but I was lucky enough not to get electrocuted.

Managed to do something similar myself. I was changing the light switches in a flat and I forgoyt to switch the mains power off. I touched one of the wires and electrocuted myself. My hand felt like it was dead for days afterwards.

Did something similar when replacing a spotlight at the cinema. This one was about 6 metres up so I was standing on a ladder, reaching into the thing to find the bayonet socket.

I found it.

I don't like the sound of *bayonet* socket.

"Fix bayonets and CHARGE!!"   Probably what Odeon thought he heard the light say as he tumbled to the ground.

It isn't that scary.

It was my mother telling me about bayonet fittings when I was about 4 I think.

I didn't fall, miraculously enough.

Just tried logging in with the name headache. Didn't work. 

Had to think twice to know what name to use instead.

I'm not dumb, I'm just not an electrologist like you.

I know that you're not. I was protecting industry terms from bad jokes by you and weakling. It didn't work.
