I've participated in my share of things that this video classifies as Level 3, sort of like saying "Y'all watch this!' -- free climbing 80-foot bluffs, getting lost in a cave, making gunpowder at age 13 (who needed the Internet in the 1970s, the recipe was in the dictionary), building a firecracker gun that shot 50-caliber marbles -- but I don't want to elevate things to Levels 4 and 5.

Blast, he seems to be the kind of guy who goes to Level 5 as he laughs in the locomotive's face!
