Human beings reached the top of the food chain because we could invent the sledge hammer and then explosives. However, Wisdom does not necessarily go hand in hand with intelligence

Very strange pass time, especially with the masks over their faces. (Might have something to do with either being illegal in their part of the planet, or else not wanting to be recognized by family and friends as the village idiots.)
I wonder where or in whom the flying sledge landed?

Of course it's stupid but come on! You can't tell me you wouldn't participate if you were standing close by, heck I'd give it a go.
People do many stupid things because they're fun.
