This was probably a decade ago, my brother and I went dirt bike riding with my dad. I had gone with dad a few summers in a row now, but it was my brother's first time in years. So, dad started to go over with him basic bike riding stuff. Not having it, my brother declared "I know what I'm doing dad" and ignored everything he was being told.

He proceeded to start the bike, rev the throttle to max, and dump the clutch all at once. He popped a wheelie and made it probably ten feet before crashing while dad and I just completely lost our shit cracking up. He was fine, btw, it was just majestic. He didn't go riding with us again after that though.
