Dangerous Dad

When my brothers and I were kids, our dad encouraged, and indeed led, many perilous activities.  This helped to foster in us a spirit of reckless abandon that led to many broken bones and a fierce independence.  There was, however, a line that he would not allow us to cross:



Whipping children, and young adults, through the snow on a sled tied to a 4-wheeler?

Catching us, and then allowing us to continue, chaining a grocery cart full of children to a bicycle (you know what happens next)?

Encouraging my little brothers to be maniacal heathens obsessed with fire?

Trampolines?
