This is a question Question of the Week suggestions

Each week we ask a question. The idea is to generate material that's:

* interesting to read, i.e. we won't get bored of reading the answers after about 10 of them
* not been asked on this site before
* fun to answer

What would you like to ask? (We've left this question open - so feel free to drop in ideas anytime.)

Worst thing done as a child
Following on from Declan_m's . .

Let's see . . we put my friends little brother in a tractor tyre and rolled him down a hill, forgetting about the traffic at the end until he was well out of reach. Luckily he crossed the road without any collisions and bounced off into a field, where we found him dizzy and covered in puke :)

Then we . . stuffed newspaper in drainpipes and lit it. It got sucked up the drainpipe as it created its own vacuum or something. Made a flipping great noise too - like a very angry ghost sucking on a milkshake. And it melted the dainpipes after a while :) The council changed them all from open spouts to buried spouts not long after.

Apparently, the big boys threw tractor tyres over lampposts and used them to stabilise upside down gas canisters, then lit a fire under them or hammered the end off or something. I heard that the things shot straight up and smacked the tops off the lampposts. Never saw it though - anyone know if it's feasible? I've always wanted to try . .

Oh yeah, and I set my little brothers hand on fire with dripping molten plastic.
