No Tim, if you jump on the 3rd rail without touching the ground you are not making a circuit. Many years ago the P Way gangs on British Rail used to use this as an enterance exam.

Me and a mate walked along the railway track from Portsalde to Hove in 1992 after a stag night. We'couldn't get a cab after another mate had got in one we hailed and thrown up over the backseat and us and all the trains had finsihed and no cab would take us (actually it was Newhaven Seagull 85's stag) The mate who threw up however pissed refused to walk along with us.
Anyway it was all right until we got to the graveyard area then there are no street lights just lots of rats and foxes we got to near Aldrington and noticed the signal up ahead was green frighteningly it was a train from the Hove direction that suprised us so we had to dive in the bushes by the Hove council tip. My mate then decided it we be a good idea to jump down by Sackville Road bridge , which he did jarring bones in his foot and ankle and advised me not to jump. I headed for Hove Station platform and just got away with some bullshit although that station staff said they had called the BT Police the footbridge was always open in those days so I legged it up there. How we staggered over the 3rd rail that night many times I don't know. Sadly my mate who didn't walk with us drowned five years later

School trip to France when I was 14, I got on top of the bunk bed and pushed the tiles from the ceiling out (made of flimsy stuff) I was hoisted up, crawled around for a maximum of 5 seconds and then fell through the roof, knocking half of it down. I'll always remember the teachers face when he saw it, bloody lucky I landed on the bed.

I once about 12/13 was walking through a quary and put a pick axe into one of them small camping gas cylinders, it had gas in it as just hissed and stank, if i created a spark i could have been seriously burnt, my mate punched me in the face for being a dickhead.
