I can't think of any right off the bat. but you can ask my pa. he has lots of close call stories from when he was a kid.
Like when he went pranking with a friend of his. they would ring this guys door bell and run and hide. after doing it for awhile, the guy came out with a shotgun shooting at them. LOL
Then him and the same friend came across an old rail car. they snooped around inside and found what they thought was dynamite. after trying to actually light them, it turned out to be flares. LOL, I don't wanna think about what would've happened it it was real TNT.
I could go on and on.....
