 Did the dumbest thing with my beast. Daughter said she had a post in her yard that her & her hubby could not pull out with their car, so I volunteered to attack it with my beddy.Hooked a long tow rope onto it & started to pull. Daughter yells out that it wasn't moving so as I have a grunty 350 chev I give it a bit more. Daughter calls again that the beddy is a bit gutless because the post still is not moving. Pride gets me so I use a little bit more throttle & all of a sudden post gives. Well it sounded like a gun had gone off inside my van & to my dismay one of my back windows is on the floor behind my drivers seat with the offending post. Now there is very little damage done to van other than a new laminated rear window but jeeeeeezz there was a lol & people rolling on the ground everywhere.  DUMB stunt.

I feel your pain. I was moving the drivers seat from the back of the van where it has been sitting to the front so I could work out the correct location for the handbrake lever on the weekend. As I was swinging the seat around in the back I didn't allow room for one of the seat mounts I had left bolted to the bottom of the seat and it hit the edge of the window rubber with enough force that it cracked the side window.

Not as dramatic as yours but still a new piece of glass required. It really pisses me off fixing one thing and breaking another.  >:(

Don't worry Benny - you still hold the Title for the "Dumbest Thing Done"
