Pavlov's Frog writes: I once spent 20 minutes with my eyes closed to see what it was like being blind. I smashed my knee on the kitchen cupboard, and decided I'd be better off deaf as you can still watch television.

This is a QotW answer Ooh, another one from 9-year-old me...
I had a toy tank that fired matchsticks out of its gun turret, by means of a spring and a pin in the barrel.

One day, I decided to find out what would happen if I fired it up my nose. Luckily, I didn't use a matchstick, just stuck the end of the barrel up my nose and fired it.

A small flinch later and that was it. I put the tank down and carried on playing. Then wondered why my nose was running, and wiped it with my finger to find lots of blood.

I then had to explain to my mum why I had a nosebleed, but only in one nostril...
