What's the weirdest thing you've done? By which I mean that thing which when you mention it to friends they look at you like you've just fallen off the edge of the planet.

Mine would be putting my hand in a bag and pulling out Juan Pablo Montoyas underpants....

I was helping a friend go through a large pile of Williams F1 memorabilia when we came across a duffle bag marked with the letters JPM. Upon opening the bag there was a waft of stale smell but I gingerly dived in. Inside the bag and all marked 'Juan' were a set of used Sparco underwear, a towel and a set of slightly second hand Calvin Kliens....

I'm guessing he finished a race or a test, bunged them in the bag and then forgot about them.

Can anyone top that for weirdness?

I have seen that done in 'Zoolander'. He must have been both suprised and impressed when you did that :P

Skied naked (apart from boots obviously).

Not something I recommend.

Rescued a sheep from a stream whilst out on a mountain bike ride with a load of mates.

Everyone else apart from my mate Jon and me wouldn't go anywhere near it. Wusses.

Funniest thing was as we got to it, I asked what do we do?

My mate Jon replied "Just grab its back legs and pull it towards you!" biggrin

Think he may have been spending too much time near farm animals - it took us hours to stop laughing! smile

Sat in a tree on the University of Nottingham campus eating mini donuts with my mate, pissed as farts, while evading security.

Luckily, this was a much better idea than the one which involved us swimming the lake there...

Naked cigar racing.

Basically a running race, in the middle of winter, in Scotland, when it was fking cold, several of us stark bk naked running up a country lane smoking very large Cuban cigars.

We were pissed and it sounded like a good idea at the time.



Is that weird enough?

hehe

Chasing after 3 helicopters at about 2 in the morning whilst off my tights on Mushrooms.

I got lost whilst doing it as well - not good...

(NB - this is not something I'm proud of, but it was significantly odd!)

When I was a young kid, me and my best mate used numerous balls of wool (can't recall where we got them) and proceeded to weave the wool across the road, back and forth between lamp posts, trees etc at a height of around 3 feet, effectively blocking the road for a distance of around 100 meters.

It was very funny to see the residents the following morning unable to get to work until they had removed the result of our night time nonsense.

I do look back on it though and think 'what was I thinking?'

You must have been nuts! I know the lake on the campus and it never looks inviting - even on a rowing boat.

Don`t know if this is weird enough but I once recreated some roadworks on a mates parents driveway. I even "borrowed" a large Midland bank Griffin sign as the centre piece. It was when the Midland bank were having a makeover and the sign was in a skip - I did`nt rob it off the wall as such.

I once re-arranged roadworks to close a road and, even created a diversion. Although I think this was more a drunken antic than weird.

Fancy dress party at uni. Late in the evening we stumbled upon another fancy dress party and got some stick. It ended up with Gladiator (me) and Braveheart (my mate) fighting Zorro and a male tomb raider. Sylvester the cat broke it up.
