I used to walk on an old oil drum. Good for the balance, and don’t step on the rusted out areas and gash your foot.

The whole prisoner’s dilemma of the seesaw, you lose when the other kid jumps off and you slam into the ground, but your score sort of goes up the longer you keep going.

Scraping the powder out of caps to make a big bang.

When my father was twelve, he had a dog, a bicycle, and a rifle, and he counted himself as having everything a boy could need.

We found you could make a really big bang by hitting a whole roll of caps with a hammer. Then we found you could do a whole box of 5-6 rolls of caps by turning the hammer sideways. Man, THAT was loud! Probably not good for the hearing.
