Where I grew up, they used to say "Ihii ni cia Ngai!" Boys belong to God. Despite the seeming dangerous games, they always survived.

I remember this boy who timed their cow while it was sleeping and jumped and held on to its horns. Needless to say the cow wasn't amused. The boy spent a few months in hospital with his legs hanging from the ceiling!

The most extreme for me was to play those games where we imitated wrestling stunts. Pray

There was this boy from my village who attempted to parachute down a tall tree using an umbrella.A couple of metres down from his jumping point,the umbrella canopy turned upwards (We were not expecting it to hold anyway). The boy sustained multiple injuries and despite his agony,he still got a few lashes from his mom before being taken to hospital......amongst us then,he became a hero.

a friend of yours? Laughing out loudly Laughing out loudly


Drool Drool ....I am under no obligation to disclose my enemies or friends smile ......Then there was this one who strapped a 30 litre plastic jerrycan on his back.The "innovation" had a thin plastic pipe running from the cap to his mouth.The poor boy tried to scuba dive with the contraption in a nearby dam.I think he wanted to explore the bottom of the dam. Of course the idiot was lucky he couldn't go down.


Explore indeed. Laughing out loudly Laughing out loudly Laughing out loudly Reminds me of the time when one of us attempted to cross 'kidimbwi cha maji' in the neigborhood using an abandoned wheelbarrow (with the metals that make up the handles and wheel parts stripped off) pretending it was a boat. Let's just say he was lucky it wasn't deep. Laughing out loudly Laughing out loudly Laughing out loudly

Whomever thought is was a good idea to put a mesh cover on the elec fuse box/meter, gave us the idea to venture early into electric engineering. When we put our screw drivers inside there, the sound that emanated.... let's just say some of us thank God to be alive.

There were some five year olds who came up with the genius idea of applying the red pepper powder in their foreskins after a pulling back your foreskin competition bored them. Néedless to say they each ran howling in pain to their mothers, who couldn't help laughing at them as they doused the mentioned with water.
Its all good.

This reminds me of not so distance past when I cut some pilipili while cooking in kitchen then forgot to watch my hands properly. Soon after I visited the small room and absentmindedly did the job. For a few minutes, it felt like I'd been down the river again!

This is good. I remember during our days how many times I narrowly missed death or serious injury. Yes this has helped me in my risk assessment today.
I remember one day me and my group of 4 friends went (as usual) to push our home made go Cart down a hill. Due to wood fatigue the thing disintegrated mid way and we were all thrown in different directions. I managed to limp home but I had sprained my foot so badly that I couldn't go to play again for almost a week it was during the holidays. What I didn't tell mum was in the same incident someones hand was broken and another one lost a tooth.

@Mpobiz..
All may be true but the red part umejijazia to make it sweet. You cant convince me that in a village, someone loses his tooth and another breaks his limb and all go unnoticed by your mother, or still if you didnt tell her she didnt get it from someone else.

Remember these lamps? My cousin must have been between 1-2 years old at that time that they want to touch everything.Every time the lamp was lit he wanted to touch it no matter how many times the mum prevented him from trying to.One day while the mum was in the kitchen cooking and we remained in the living room with the dad he let him touch it while it was white hot. Needless to say that was the last time he tried approaching the lamp ever.
