A young man thought up this great stunt that would make his video go viral. He'd have his girlfriend shoot him in the chest with only a book between the bullet and his body, and he'd survive because the book would stop the bullet. Obviously. But the thing is, in less obvious cases, we all have the potential to be a dope and do something thoughtless, foolish, impulsive, without considering possible unintended consequences. Best we beware of our great thoughts and perhaps run them by others we deem to be sensible souls, before leaping into action.
