19 Mad Lads Who Wasted No Time Giving A Dang

Many of us have crossed paths with an adrenaline-seeking mad lad at one point or another. You’ll recognize a proper mad lad by the way they so carelessly sprint through life’s obstacles, and likely leave complete wreckage in their wake. No really though. Anyone who is taking the time and energy to brag online about their odds-defying feats needs to take a pause to assess things. With that being said, there are also those rare cases of folks (human or animals out in the wild) being complete seemingly invincible titans. We rounded up a solid collection of both kinds of mad lads.
