Those "did I just see that" moments
shardian:
I have a funny one: I thought I told this one already, but apparently not.
When I was around 10 or 11, I was hanging out at my friends house riding bikes. We always made up crazy games to pass the time. This time, we took one of those plastic kick balls - the cheapo marble colored ones that weigh like an ounce - and tried to knock each other off of our bikes. So one of us would ride by slow, and the other would chuck the ball to knock the other off. Seems impossible right? Well maybe one of us would get lucky and hit the other in the face or something to send him off balance. Well anyways, it was my turn to throw. I throw the ball at his wheel, and somehow it perfectly landed in between his front wheel and the frame, thus locking up his wheel. His back wheel came up and he did a front flip and landed on his ass with the bike on top of him. I almost peed my pants from laughing so hard. We tried for like a solid week to do it again and never could.

Heh. I did that once as a teenager. I was riding home from work with a plastic shopping bag of clothes on the handlebars... it jammed between the front wheel and the frame part the wheel attaches to... wheel stops dead and the bike and I both flip over and land face first on the pavement. I think I was actually out for a bit as I don't remember it actually happening, I just remember riding and then sitting up on the pavement wondering how I got there.

Another one from my childhood days.
At the little league field, we had a pebble lined creek. Alot of us would get together and throw little pebbles at each other. Well one of my friends was throwing bigger rocks and it really started to piss me off. He threw a final rock then took off running to avoid retaliation. I picked up a rock about the size of a golf ball, but which was kind of pointed on one side. He was pretty far from me at this point, and running at a slight angle - all while laughing his ass off. I chucked the rock as hard as I could at him - never actually intending to hit him or even thinking it had a chance anyways. Well as soon as the rock left my hand, I just knew it was destined for its mark. I think I might have even yelled at him to watch out. Anyways, midlaugh and all, the rock smacked him right in the back of the neck. He stopped, turned and looked at me with a shocked expression, then turned and ran screaming for his mommy. I felt bad, but oh man that was funny. It was so worth the yelling I took from his mom. ;D I mean, the odds of hitting him with that rock were so frikking bad, I don't think I could ever pull that off again.
ChadTower:
I did that too!
When I was 15 or so this girl I was dating and I were looking for a place to get some privacy... but my little brother kept following us on his bike. So eventually I yelled at him enough that he started to go home. We were on an old railroad path (tracks gone) in the middle of the woods. He's probably 40 yards away when he turns around to pretend he's coming back, I yell at him and throw a rock the size of a baseball in his direction thinking there is no way in hell I can even reach him nevermind hit him. He turns back to go home and the rock hits him square in the back, while he's riding, probably 45 yards from me. He falls off the bike into the ditch and barely moves... then gets up and runs off screaming like he just got hit by a rock at 45 yards. This one wasn't funny, though, as if that got his head it would have killed him. I don't think Tom Brady could have done that more than once nevermind me.

This one time...I went to pick up an arcade cab...I didn't really want to move it by myself, so I had my pregnant wife come with me. We get there, check out the cab and start to take it downstairs...the guy asks who else is gonna help me move it. So I point to the old lady...sucker sighs and grabs the other end.
Beautiful play.
