Took off from Jibbon beach in a huge southerly on a broad reach to New Zealand. (Before I knew how to gybe or water start.) Was too scared to try and turn around because I knew I'd fall off, so I just kept going, until the land began to look rather distant. 
In fading light, was about to ditch everything, and try to paddle my Bombora tri-fin a few miles back to boat harbour (yeah, that's how far I'd gone). At the last moment, a deep see fishing boat happened to come past and rescued me. 
In retrospect, bloody stupid, breaking just about every safety rule in the book. (Though I did carry some spare uni-joint rope in my harness
)
stepped in dog **** then while hopping trying to remove it with a stick i headbutted a power pole
.
It's only a dumb thing if you don't learn from it!
I paid $700 for this iPad I'm typing on when it came free from the universe!!!
Yes I thought I had paid for it in store but I had only handed my licence over for the sim ID, so I walked out.
half way back to the car I realised my mistake and returned to pay them..........
Lesson ! The universe throws free dog bones everywhere that no one owns, and it's a real dumb Dog who passes it by.
Was walking down the street in a shopping centre and turned to admire a gorgeous woman walking by, I looked at her too long and I walked straight into a light pole and knocked myself out.
Haven't learnt from it though.
ET.

Got married, won't do that again
Sorry mate, wish I could have gotten this to ya sooner
When I was 17 I had a vl turbo. Back then the internet was crud, mobiles just starting and I knew everything. I decided I could boost my vl abit. So I installed a boost gauge and was showing 7, bugger that time to wind her up. Knowing very little I cut the actuator rod about 5mm welded it back and went for a spin..
1st sideways, 2nd sideways, 3rd sideways now at about 110kms, I looked at the boost and hitting a nice 21 - followed buy a screeching sound, steam out the bonnet and black suet poring out the exhaust. Killed the head and turbo in about 1.5mins of stupidity. 3k later and I sold the car and brought a 1983 celica.
I went from dumb to full retard.
"Full retard" -that's gold.
I grabbed my mates brand new timber bass guitar at a party when I was sloshed at 17yo. Thought I was a bit drunk to keep hold of it so better throw the strap over my shoulder. After strapping, let go, and bam. Down she goes.
Slit in the strap was on the topside.
Over $1k later I was sober. Terrible night.
At a party on a summer's afternoon and the beers are tasting good. 
Lots of lovely young things, and enough beer that I'm thinking I've gotta chance.
Someone starts a game of backyard cricket. I decide to do one attempt at a fast ball and manage to hit a random girl walking behind the batsman in the breast with the ball. 
She cries and all female eyes turn to me as the thoughtless evil guy who randomly throws balls at women's breasts. Needless to say, I stayed single that night.
Thought it was a good idea to write "Mark" in my own (purple coloured) puke on the stairs, at my 21st at a nightclub.
Not my finest moment....
Disregarded friend's advice a few years later at same club. If it is 6ft, has a scarf around the neck and looks "enough like a girl" it actually may not me...?
Or maybe - never ridden a motorbike, but am first to get on a postie bike we just filled with methanol and added a 50hp nitrous kit onto...............
I think maybe the latter was dumbest..
Experimenting last night with densities of two pack polyurethane foam
Small mix of
1-1/2 teaspoons in a sealed plastic cup.......Sweet
3 teaspoons in a sealed plastic cup.......like a dry ice bomb.... except considerably messier
Less than 2km from home - going flat out looking like I am going to get a PB after a 35km bike ride, lights go orange and I think I'll jump onto the footpath and skip through before she goes red... wrong! Bike vs Car and bike comes off worse. Crushed L2 vertebrae, two broken ribs and I spent the next 2yrs in terrible pain that still niggles me 15yrs later.

I think you know it's time to get married when you are ready for someone else to tell you what to do...

Got done drink driving on my learners on New Year's Eve dressed in toga.
That would rank about 23rd dumbest.

Took up working for myself
I did that, but it was the BEST thing I ever did!
Almost got myself killed a few times while mountaineering in the French alps.
Other than that, no big regrets. Very happy with my life at the moment and I wouldn't be in this position if my past handed brought me to this point. Biggest regret is not answering a phone call from a mate who wound up getting killed half a week later.
