    1. This person forgot that airbags are a thing and basically turned their steering wheel into a grenade:

    2. This person's roommate left their Teflon pan on the burner for hours and superheated it, possibly releasing toxic gases into the air:

    3. This person's parents left a concave mirror by the window, nearly starting a house fire:

    4. This person rescued a "dog" that was actually very much a coyote (and could have had rabies):

    5. This guy soaked his nicotine pouches in raw deer blood, which is just begging for a prion disease :

    6. This person picked up a blue-ringed octopus , one of the most venomous creatures on the planet:

    7. This person's sister failed to empty her dryer's lint trap for...IDK, years? Which is fire-hazard central:

    8. This person found a bunch of potatoes that had lived in the cellar for a year (which can be deadly if they start to rot because of the gases they give off):

    9. This person thankfully didn't light their crystal with pyrite (fool's gold) in it because when you burn pyrite, it releases sulfur dioxide :

    10. This person was — I hope and pray — just making a joke about keeping the trucks running:

    u/ceo_of_dumbassery / Via reddit.com

    11. This person found an old uranium water crock that you were supposed to drink out of (?!?!?!):

    12. This person picked up what they thought was a rat snake (spoiler alert, it was a rat...tlesnake):

    https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?url=1UGgGT_0vlm7nHs00

    13. This person found their grandma's "cooking spoon":

    This spoon is an example of vintage enamelware, which contained lead and cadmium before the 1970s. All of that lead coating ended up in grandma's food over the years.

    14. This is just...not how stairs work:

    15. This person found an American dagger moth caterpillar , whose hairs can cause hives and a burning sensation on the skin. So, while it might not kill you, it could definitely hurt:

    16. This person found a tea for sale that we all hope is just named "Lily of the Valley." Because if it was actually tea made out of lily of the valley — you know, the severely poisonous plant — that would be bad:

    17. This person found a "levitating" tree, which they hopefully got far, far away from as quickly as possible:

    18. This person better not have plugged those in:

    19. This person's landlord found a solution for a wet carpet, which was leaving this plugged in and running all day:

    20. This person found themselves following a Final Destination truck that was even scarier than the truck in the actual movie:

    21. And finally, this person was just holding a straight-up piece of raw uranium ore:
