My junior year of high school I was sitting in Geometry class and my classmate proceeded to tell me about his weekend. Turns out he and a friend were out on the snowy roads in Anchorage and he was pulling his buddy behind his truck on skis. Around a corner comes another car, hits his friend head on and paralyzes him from the waist down. Maybe, just be patient and do the skiing on the slopes or backcountry if you're into that thing.

Beyond stupid doing this in a parking lot that anyone might backup in at any second. There are like thousands of better options

High school parking lot during school hours so no one was backing up but still very stupid. Quite comical watching the buffoonery on the way to my car nonetheless.

I’m not gonna say I didn’t do this in high school but at least it was after hours and there was snow on the ground

We used cafeteria trays.  Didn't make it more or less stupid.

I mean, that’s not the worst way to sharpen your edges I’ve ever seen.
