Not so crazy in terms of a bet, but betting on the Giants to win the superbowl in 2007.  There was discussion of Eli manning getting replaced, the giants were picked to have a losing record and weren't anywhere on the radar in terms of SB teams.  Figured I was throwing $100 away only to win big.

I am not fond of betting against my friend so I don't have any experience on betting about things no matter how wild it is with my friend.  I play slots and I do not feel that it can be considered to be a wild experience  Tongue.
I know slot games will be more fun, but I think at least you should experience at least one wild bet like this because it will really give you an experience that you will never forget for the rest of your life. Grin

Lol, that is indeed a wild thing and I find it not disgusting because it is a normal thing for a living thing to excrete.  But I wonder how can you justify the bet result, does the person who is the subject of the bet knows it?
no, he did not know about this bet. he is indeed one of our friends, but when he becomes the subject of a bet between me and another friend, it actually happens accidentally and its disgusting, we sometimes have to peek at him defecating and throughout the day have to be at his house to find out how many times he defecates. well, sometimes I miss betting like this when I was young and did not have a wife and after I started a family I never made such wild bets again.

I'll take it back to a classic movie: Caddy Shack. At one point towards the end of the movie there is a huge wager placed on a round of golf between the two guys in this scene:  https://youtu.be/FUDeGD-Qox4?si=HuN1YnHjQPuGc7o5 the caddies are all watching behind the bushes and they're placing some side bets on anything and everything. One of the bets was that the nephew of one of the players who was a goof ball would pick his nose and he did, they doubled down on it and said I bet you he eats it for double! And he did. I always chuckled at that scene, but it always made me wonder what other kind of ridiculous bets that other people make.

Here is the scene:  https://youtu.be/E-jlQS-Wuc0

Hope you all have a good laugh on this and if you haven't seen it watch the movie!
I just watched the video, and it's really kind of funny how people gamble on petty things and still win, and when it comes to me, I just can't remember making such silly/petty gambling on any item before, but this video just reminds me of another gambling scene by Will Smith in a 2015 movie titled "Focus", which I must confess happens to be one of my best gambling scene how Will Smith won the in an attempt where there seems to be zero percent odd of him winning, but he eventually won & went away with the $2million.

the wildest thing I ever did was bet with my friend how many times my friend would poop. a little disgusting but its like fun, not about addiction because bets like this are done accidentally and very spontaneously. the first day of making this stupid bet I lost guessing how many times my friend defecated but several friends found out about this wild bet they became interested and continued for several days and I won the bet once and it was really fun but after a long time passed I felt like been a fool in the past.

Some funny stories mentioned in here. I personally for the life of me can’t think of a funny bet at the moment but I enjoyed reading some of the stories posted here. Most of the humorous bets from my past would likely involve alcohol or girls, but I’m not sure if those would be appropriate to mention here. Always in good fun for everyone.

I don't i can even remember if I'd ever to being wild to take the risk in gambling and yet win as well, we have to consider how gambling itself is full of risk not to talk of going more wild in it to end up not winning, maybe those kind of addicted gamblers who gambles regularly maybe more found in this regard whereby they take the wildest risk and yet sometimes win at last, but this is not a common occurrence with gambling.

I once made a wild bet by risking all the money in my wallet, but I was not that lucky, getting a big win from the big bet I made. However, starting from the big losses I experienced, this made me realize that gambling is not a place to multiply money, but a place to have fun.

And starting from this, I can be more controlled in gambling, sometimes to make us aware of the bad things we do, we have to be at the lowest point first so that our paradigm and thinking towards gambling can change significantly.
I can't even think about it because it was quite unfortunately for me trying to bet more a casino after I had some huge winning on the casino and think it is going to be like that. I have to wager the remaining funds I have in the casino without think what if I lose. This was one of the painful greedy attempt I have ever indulge in and it hurt me a lot not getting what I intend to gain from the casino. I lost the funds and I regretted because I never think twice before I use those funds to bet creating a very big lose to me. We need to understand what action we are taking before we eventually put our funds to do such thing.

If you regret the bad things you did while gambling, then this proves that you are truly aware of the carelessness you have made when gambling. And you also realize that carelessness will only result in huge losses, both material and time. If you cannot stop your gambling activities then what you have to do is limit your finances and time for gambling, and you should look for more productive activities to fill your free time. Because the more free time you have between your daily activities, the more time you will continue to gamble.

There is one betting experience that is quite risky and in my opinion this is very hostile to the public and also the authorities namely betting on illegal races on the highway.
Usually we usually race in the middle of the night before the morning around 1 to 3 in the morning and experience several chases with the police trying to arrest all of us involved in illegal motorbike racing.

In my country this type of betting is rampant everywhere and is done almost every day causing commotion and also a big risk for jockeys to have accidents.
Maybe some people think this is a crazy bet and is risking their lives but from here there is extraordinary satisfaction and adrenaline when winning.

I think in several countries there are also motorbike racing fans who make wild bets like this but now they tend to be more active because there are circuits available that can be rented for racing.

The only country that is in the spotlight of big betting on illegal racing is Thailand and it has quite a lot of great mechanics and popular motorbike jockeys.

At least you have to experience gambling because it deals with luck which we may call fastest luck,sometimes you won't blame someone who is addicted in gambling because what that person have in mind is that they will strictly win and when they fails to win they will continue trying to make sure this people win the gambling, so immediately you are planning to win and recover your lost in gambling you will be tempted to bet more so that you will win a big money, is good to risk but it's not a point whereby you bet without knowing that in gambling you win and you may not win, everyone need to experience gambling and know the spirit behind gambling

There are people who have huge hopes for gambling and see it as a tool to change their lives that's why their focus is to win despite all the risks. The problem is they have the wrong mindset towards gambling which makes them fall for worse situations such as gambling addiction. Yes, we can't blame them for falling into addiction since that's their personal choice.
It's fine to take a wild bet sometimes but if we will always do this, will will always put our funds into huge risks which we might only regret in the end. We should always be mindful of our actions no matter how big or small our bets are.
As a gambler you are not supposed to focus directly in gambling to survive or being desperate that you will win gambling at all course, things changes because something I understand concerning gambling is that gambling have to deals with careful because if you are not careful in playing gambling what ever you have saved will go away within small time, some persons doesn't like use all their hope in gambling and those people are the people that always win gambling, gambling is try a luck and bet for gambling will not give you assurance for you build a house or buy a car, is either you lose or you gain and besides many people who played gambling when you check their ratio you will notice that the losing is higher than winning, so we don't need to keep hope to win always in gambling

Wild bets are fine as long as you can endure the consequence whether it is a win or lose outcome. Sometimes making such bet is for excitement alone. If you are taking wild bets with huge amount of money then that could be a problem in the future ‘coz you are taking too much risk.
We take risks everyday in the system, always planning ahead and never reluctant in carrying out actions. The wildest action I've carry out in gambling is knowing fully well that my favorite team will lose against an elite side like Manchester City in UEFA Champions League final, staking with hugh sum because I was confident about the blues, never underestimate any elite club interms of featuring in elite final competition. Chelsea won and I accumulate significant profits. Placing wagers on high odds, a potential risks taken either for positive or negative results.

In the first video I only saw an advertisement, then in the second video it was like they were betting on a person whether to do it or not, that the person didn't know that these gamblers were betting on him that he had no idea about.
I have never experienced that kind of gambling, even when I was young, but the only thing I experienced when I was young was tossing a coin to predict whether it would be a person or an animal. That's what I experienced with my friends, then what I was paying was not money but things.

I think it was with presidency in our country. It was a bet between my colleagues and I for frun and I happened to win the bet without actually voting for that candidate. I also read some of the things which are not often being gambled of, and I guess everything could be a gamble as long as there are two or more contrast viewpoints. With wild bets, there are even instances that we bet on the opposite team or player just because we are biase of one team but having no assurance that they would win due to several reasons.

I remember a bet placed during a gathering. It looks silly, but it always stands in my mind. The bet was to eat rice cake, how much you can eat is the question. Just for fun I said I can eat what you say and the bet amount is mere $2. The number of cup cake to be eaten was 25 and suddenly I agreed and on that they increased it to 30, I said I'm ok with the number. Started a s I completed the task, and everyone were laughing as none expected it. Finally the bet amount isn't settled, but it was something fun and joyful moment.

I believe I have replied to a post similar to this one about "the weirdest thing we have ever placed a bet on" I can't remember the tittle of the thread vividly but it sure is similar to this one you just created.

And as for the bet, I guess I could use my childhood bets for yah. Normally when we are on our dinning table after we are done with our meal sometimes my siblings and I will place a bet on who can finish a big cup filled with water would take all our meat and eat it and some would try, after consuming after of the cup they'll give up same goes for me, but my sister does win sometimes depending on the dish we ate. So that could serve as wild in this scenario.

P.s please remove the first link in your post, it shows nothing other than an advert.

To be honest, I don't remember well if I ever placed bets on wild things before. However, there were those times when I had to wager a huge amount of money on random games I knew little about, and fortunately I won them.

It happened only a few times when I bet more than $250 in some live games and I managed to get a good return on them, what was even more insane was that I used this money on completely random football games that I had no knowledge of.

I mean it might not be considered wild but those were some of the few bets that I can recall from time to time even now.

I wouldn't consider this tale a very wild one, neither was I the one who made the bet. I was only made aware of the bet and the fact that I won to the amazement of the bettors who happen to be some junior colleagues making a bet on me vs another guy.

It was about a girl of who they considered above my class. I won her heart amidst every other interest she was having then and the fact that I had no money then as compared to the other interest she was having, was what made the bet much talked about later when I got to learn about the bet.

I think betting for any thing that come to our minds. Every night, me and my buddy, when we are still like 10-12 years olds, will bet on the registration numbers of the incoming cars, at least the last number.

So we will place a bet and then look for that incoming car at it approach us sitting in porch. We will do it at night, until each one of us will go home. back. And we will continue this even at school breaks and we started all this craze back then. Fun days, when I recall this and tell to my kids,  Grin

Some people enjoy turning everything into a gambling opportunity. When they discuss or argue about something you will find these kind of people placing bets on their beliefs. Sometimes it's cool and fun but other times it can lead to much trouble either because to lack of money to pay the bet and getting beaten or just losing too much money.
I believe that when someone starts seeing everything as a gambling opportunity they might be addicted and should seek help to regain control of their life. This can even happen to non-addicted people who occasionally find themselves caught up in wild betting situations without an option but to accept that bet.

I had a crazy friendly bet myself in school with a friend back in days. The bet started when he said I would easily pass my exams because i study more than him and I was telling him that I do really study I wouldn’t pass anything this year so we made a bet. Unfortunately what I did was regrettable because I had to intentionally fail my exams to fulfill the bet and win. As a result neither of us passed that year lol…. and I wasted a lot of time in my life just for a stupid bet and some cash.  I guess I was young and foolish but it was a valuable lesson learned about gambling.
