Bad Idea Sift Day
dystopianfuturetoday posted this earlier which prompted me to look up "bad idea" in general VS search. Sifty counted out 36 videos and a shit load of comments. some of the videos are competing for the Darwin Awards while others are just plain stupid. and then you have your crooks & liars shooting themselves in the metaphorical foot... anyway, i'm sure we can do better than 36? so, get busy and digg out those funny videos of people having bad ideas. unless you think this post is a bad idea

Found another one.
If you want to eat your shoe because of a lost bet, bad idea, it has been done and even gracefully:)

i'll just drill into this shallow lake bottom conveniently located over a salt mine and see what happens - bad idea!
while on my search for a bad idea video, I came across one that was a REALLY bad idea: getting out of your car on a safari while lions ar feeding.
It's snuff, and kinda graphic,

That's that's horrible, and horribly stupid. I'm sure he was awarded a Darwin award for his actions.
This is both a good idea and a bad idea at the same time. http://www.videosift.com/video/Squirt-Gun-Flamethrower
It is also how Choggie cooks his ribs.
It's not a good idea to startle a really big strong stranger on your front porch on Halloween night.

Gee Bob, we didn't use all of this giant roll of steel cable...we need to get it back down to the ground floor...how should we do it?
I know...let's just ease it down the stairs! It's not THAT heavy....

I discarded mine - since it did not sift
Now I will find some concentrated stupid to put on the sift
*quality
Awarding kulpims with one star point for this contribution to Sift Talk - declared quality by dystopianfuturetoday.
I know I'm really late to the party but I just saw something that I thought fit the bill. http://www.videosift.com/video/Breastfeeding-till-Age-8
^this just might be a winner
Are we limited to just people with bad ideas? For example, I think flying in front of a Randy Johnson fastball would qualify!
