Craziest Thing You’ve Ever Done: I once caught a mouse with my bare hands. Unfortunately, I didn’t realize how hard I was gripping the poor thing until after it had died of suffocation. Then, out of curiosity, I opened the mouse up using a small knife to see if it had a brain. To my surprise, it actually had one! I was around 7 years old at the time.
