If someone tries to dare you, prank you, or scare you into getting into a tight spot, just say no. You are not as flexible as you think, the laws of physics still apply, and there will be photos of the event to haunt you for all eternity.

Just remember the cat's philosophy, and if you don't fits, you don't sits.
