Back when I was in the Navy, I had a couple of hometown friends who were clowns, and they thought it would be funny to go to the drive up windo at Burger King (back in the Seventies) with one of them sitting on the roof to order.

When they got the order, the guy driving the car pulled out onto the main road (a VERY busy road) with his buddy on top, screaming at him to pull over.

The silliness and stupidity of youth. It was funny to hear the story, but not so funny to imagine how it could have gone sideways on them.

When younger, I had a friend who went to a party and was hanging out sitting on the hood of a girl’s car. Cops showed up to roust everybody and she took off with him still on the hood. Never gave him the chance to jump off. He held on until she lost it on a turn and took out a telephone pole. He lost his leg, it was smashed to bits, and he was never the same again. He died a few years later. Misadventure, for sure. Not sure if the girl was ever charged for it.
