I've been there before. Ive had my share of destroying stuff as a kid who didn't know any better. I laughed pretty good when the moron smashed the light fixture above his head by accident.
My most regretful incident was with my friend and I back around 7th grade. We went to the marklund resale shop by his house and found a nice 20" space command 600 table TV in the dumpster from around 1970. For some unknown reason, we brought it back to his house and put it on the ground next to the garage. Instead of trying it out to see what could be done with it, we decided to smash the hell out of it with a sledge hammer. I don't think we even plugged it in to see what it did. Thats one of my most regretful moments of all time. Why I did that was beyond me. I probably would have kept it if it wasn't for my friend. He probably persuaded me to smash it up. I was the only one who liked the TV's, they normally just joined in for the heck of it, but really didn't care. It took another 10 years until I found a similar TV at an estate sale......This video reminds me of that day.
