Redditors what fucked up or funny story do you have from your childhood?

I'll start. I was home alone around the age of ten and I got a craving for a sammich. I wanted to go one better and toast my sammich so I got the toaster out. Me being so ingenious I got an all metal butter knife and wondered to my self "if I touch that red bright thing with the knife will the knife gradually get hot?". So next thing I poke the knife against the element and boom! I got the shock of my life (suprisingly wasn't the last shock), the knife went flying and I stood there for a good ten minutes wondering what the fuck just happened.
