Riding your bike with a buddy on the handlebars, and neither of you wearing helmets

Having snowball fights (and accidentally hitting someone you shouldn't)

Sledding without enough protective equipment to play a game in the NFL

Carrying a pocket knife to school (or having a fishing tackle box with sharp things on school property)
