You ever did something so cool/badass that even you were surprised?

Curious

SW-User

Yup. When I was 16/17 in Germany after the world cup I played this game where you had to score a football into a hole in the wall to get a prize. Nailed it from the 1st try. Everyone was surprised. Lolz

@SW-User oh shit. That's badass pinpoint accuracy.

SW-User

@EugeneLovesLife Accidental accuracy. Haha

EugeneLovesLife · 36-40, M

did a nice 360 four lane near town in vette years ago, hit a wet spot on road (drizzled a bit earlier that day) under acceleration, transmission dropped into 1st and I went around, did a lot of counter steering and playing with gas to try to keep from going into opposing lanes, went completely around straightened it out and kept going in the lane next to me when I started... so much tire smoke, it was leaking into cab between door and rear quarter panels, was awesome... wish I had it on video... 😂

that, and the almost perfect doughnut that remained there for 2 or 3 years...

@EugeneLovesLife vette's are hard to predict, especially older ones. In most cases, the more you turn into a curve, the more the car wants to turn... until you lose traction, then it goes wherever it damn well pleases...lol

EugeneLovesLife · 36-40, M

For you to know this through experience alone.... is badass

wildbill83 · 36-40, M

@EugeneLovesLife true, many learn the hard way... wrapped around a tree or telephone pole...

SW-User

@SW-User badassery x2. Beast Mode

SW-User

@EugeneLovesLife I have another example though.. I remember I failed my ICT school exam just 2 or 3 months before my GCEs ‘cause it was a new subject for me which I’d recently taken up.. I never went to the classes in school but I had another teacher who helped me out and I ended up getting an A (basically completed a 3 year course in a couple months). My school teacher was really surprised lol

EugeneLovesLife · 36-40, M

@SW-User badass is a never ending state of mind. And your proving that. Very impressive.

SW-User

Nearly shot myself in the head with a friends .22 pistol which I mistook for a replica gun or a lighter. I though it was a lighter because the gun was tiny lol.

@BlueMetalChick badass injury! How did you survive that?

BlueMetalChick · 26-30, F

@EugeneLovesLife That's not badass, that's just stupid. I dropped a loaded gun thinking it was empty and it fired. It was a small caliber bullet traveling at a relatively low velocity and it hit a non-vital area of my body. It was my no means life threatening. It definitely didn't feel very good though.

SW-User

@BlueMetalChick what does getting shot actually feel like? Curiousity killed the cat. My uncle got shot in the leg (by someone) point blank in the leg with a shotgun, he told me was in too much shock to feel anything from the large round.

BlueMetalChick · 26-30, F

I threw a knife over my back once and it actually stuck into a signboard. I was super lucky and my sister caught it on Snapchat.

EugeneLovesLife · 36-40, M

@BlueMetalChick evidence of ninja badassness

BlueMetalChick · 26-30, F

@EugeneLovesLife I actually have a video of me throwing knives on my Snapchat right now lol

CrustyDDingus · 36-40, M

@BlueMetalChick you're a ninja fruit slayer 😂

SW-User

Not really but I was quite reckless in the past and did some silly stuffs i’m not necessarily proud of but don’t regret either

EugeneLovesLife · 36-40, M

@SW-User that's right! Never regret your badass moments. Good or bad

CheshireCatalyst · 36-40, M

A few sports things that I surprised came off, and a few times talking people down off figurative ledges.

EugeneLovesLife · 36-40, M

@CheshireCatalyst winning games and saving lives. That's nonstop badass to me.

wakanda4eva · 26-30, F

Oh yeah 😎 my face is basically ripped with tattoos and scars

EugeneLovesLife · 36-40, M

@wakanda4eva A badass face for a badass person. No denying that.

Peaceful · F

Looking back, yes. Not in the moment.

EugeneLovesLife · 36-40, M

@Peaceful your badass moment is coming up soon then. You've done it in the past

xSharp · 31-35, M

@Endlesstime89 all the badass

bijouxbroussard · F

Yes...in college. The music department head handpicked his pianists for the glee club and other vocal groups. Every year of hundreds of music majors he would choose only 5 and I was just a freshman; I didn't think I had a chance. The competition piece had to be fairly brief but impressive, since lots of people where competing. I chose the Toccata from Debussy's "Pour le Piano", and did well enough to secure a spot. I didn't realize that some of my dorm-mates had come to watch until the final bars, when they started cheering...
