At a barbeque, someone peed in my beer (unbeknownst to me) and I drank some.
I tried to eat an acorn and it was very bitter.
On a school trip to the snowfields I was on a toboggan and smashed into the teachers below.
Almost drowned at Twilight Beach in Esperance when taken out by a rip tide.
I remember looking out the passenger window of a car I was in going straight ahead, - Sideways - waiting for the car to flip.
Being unable to move whilst scaling this mountain. My body froze for 20 minutes. Eventually I was able to descend.

While at a boarding school for asthmatics, the wooded area beyond the field was strictly ‘out of bounds’. It was out of bounds because one of the children a few years previously had fallen out of a tree and broken his back. Naturally, some of us kids still went there and climbed the trees.
There was a kind of ‘course’ that involved going from one tree to another by way of the branches. There was a big gap at one point where not many took the risk. Not me either for a long time. I was on my own one day and went for it. A big leap and I jumped the gap successfully. From then on, I had the method and would go for it every time. I thought I was being quite brave. 
Dangerous yes but nine year old boys don’t think about that.
