![[Linked Image]](http://media.komonews.com/images/140917_Teen_Prank1.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://media.komonews.com/images/660*439/140917_Prank_crash.jpg) Idaho teen lights driver's armpit hair on fire, vehicle rolls By KBOI Web Staff Published: Sep 17, 2014 at 9:43 PM PDT Last Updated: Sep 18, 2014 at 6:52 AM PDT BOISE, Idaho (KBOI) -- Several teenagers had to go to the hospital after a prank with a lighter went horribly wrong over the weekend. The Ada County Sheriff's Office says an 18-year-old was driving a Ford Bronco on Columbia Road early Sunday morning when a 16-year-old front passenger lit the driver's armpit hair on fire with a lighter. The vehicle ended up rolling -- tossing two teen girls from the vehicle. Paramedics had to take three of the teens to the hospital after the crash for non life-threatening injuries. The driver originally told deputies that he swerved to avoid hitting an animal, but detectives quickly learned that the teens in the front of the car were goofing off just prior to the crash. The Ada County Sheriff's Office cited Tristian Myers with inattentive driving. The teen who allegedly lit the boy's armpit hair on fire was also cited for interfering with the driver's safe operation of a vehicle. http://www.komonews.com/news/local/...50941.html?tab=gallery&c=y&img=0

That said, I did and was involved in some really stupid schit when I was their age. That I survived may be an actual miracle.

A Darwin can only be awarded if the fool renders himself unable to reproduce, meaning dead or non-functional. It's possible, though, that the father of one of the girls rendered the boys non-functional with a hunting knife.

Not to make light of it but if this had happened in Western Oregon the driver with the armpit hair would have been female...

Let's admit it, if no one was injured that would be funny as hell to do. We had a saying once, "nothing is so bad that someone won't find something funny about it". Growing up is way overrated.

This is why my daughters don't ride around with teen age boys. hate to burst your bubble but a car full of just teenage girls aint much safer Girls with cell phones in particular. Yep.. 5 nieces of driving age and they have 1 rolled car, 2 totaled cars and another T-bone between them. I've got 3 boys that are driving and so far the oldest has accounted for a mailbox on a gravel road (on a 4"x4" post) and a deer. Admittedly he had a cute blond girlfriend in the car with him when he took out the mailbox.. but they are way ahead of the girls!

Ada County teenagers (or any-other Ada County residents) are not too smart, as witnessed by this example; Valley County residents, on the other hand, are a lot smarter. They do other dumb things, but not this.

That sounds just like something some of my idiot friends would have done way back when. One of them, on a trip to the beach with his brothers, was driving the family van. They decided to try and switch drivers, while driving 70 mph on the interstate. They ended up running into the side of an 18 wheeler and then spinning out in the median. Fortunately no one was hurt. The scariest thing now is that 2 of the 3 brothers are now doctors.
