It didn't come to fruition but I hatched a plan to brew up a batch of 
thermite and weld a draw bridge closed. I doubt anyone would have found it 
funny.

Being the '60s there was a radiation monitor on the roof od the high 
school. The scheme was to somehow acquire some radioactive material from 
the college lab and seed it. We got as far as acquiring the keys necessary 
for roof access but grabbing a hot sample didn't work out.

It was only three stories but there was an elevator with keyed access for 
the faculty and handicapped students. The idea was to get the key, hit the 
emergency stop at a location when we could manually open the door and 
slither out from the partial opening. That one worked.
