Maybe in about 18years time, he'll be doing the same thing down some Nightclub steps. Hope not for his sake. Yes its not very clever, could have had a nasty tumble.

Re: Am I alone ...........

At roughly the same age, my family lived in a 1st floor flat. To prevent me going down the stairs, my parents fixed a gate at the top. I leaned and rocked on that gate until I managed to wrench it out of the wall fixing. Gate and I managed to travel all the way down the stairs and collide with the front door at the bottom without touching one of the stairs in passing!!!

I'm not a spoilsport and kids must play, however I personally find some of these clips upsetting, some of them on 'You've been framed' are not a bit funny and quite dangerous. Accidents will happen if they are to happen, but why help them along?.
