Many stunts are performed by stupid people (or kids) as a the result of a bet. "I'll bet that you can't climb to the top of that tree" "I bet you can't eat 5 giant sized hamburgers in 10 minutes" Just take a look at the people who try to get in the Guiness book of records, for example: Jackie Bibby sat in a bathtub with 87 poisonous rattlesnakes snakes for 45 minutes.

AlpheccaStarsJust take a look at the people who try to get in the Guiness book of recordsRecently I was watching Guinness World Records show and I was just going to puke. They were eating worms and doing things which you can't even imagine in your wildest dreams.
Jackie Bibby, the Texas snake man, is one step ahead of stupid people. Well, I must say
