Part 2: Me as a child putting my bare hand on a hot iron. My entire hand was bandaged up.

I don't recall the pain, but the bandages lol

Did something similar... turned the electric stove on high, waited until coil was glowing red and then touched it with my finger. I still remember how excited I was waiting for it to glow! 😄

That finger has no normal fingerprint now - the ridges and swirls are gone. Kids are dumb.

My brother did the same thing with the cigarette lighter in our car when we were little. I don’t think that one ever grew a full fingerprint back 😅😅
