20+ 'MadLads' Posts That You Will Either Love Or Hate
Mad Lads is a slang term used to describe men, guys, dudes, or bros who are wild. A person who is called a Madlad is an utterly insane individual who did something so extreme, so fundamentally unbelievable and irresponsible that people actually respect him for that.

I'm sure you knew one of them growing up. Hell, some of us still have people like this around. And not only men…
That kid who would always be asking everyone to dare him? That person who always says the worst possible thing at the most inappropriate time?
A guy that did something that nobody would have ever even dared to think of doing. Yep -all Madlads…
The term's origin is unclear, but it is also often preceded with the word "absolute" before it. The popularity of the slang all started with a subreddit on Reddit.
The term became so popular that it even has its place in the Urban Dictionary. r/madlads is a place where people can share the craziest stunts they've pulled off or seen someone else do.
We've chosen some of the most interesting posts, and we know you are going to love them. Or hate them.
Anyway, they won't leave you indifferent.

It was founded in 2015 by a student based in Dublin, Philip, also known as ANUS_CAPTAIN. He was inspired to start /r/madlads after noticing the phrase "absolute madman" under pictures of dismal nights out all over Reddit.
The membership skyrocketed pretty quickly, and it now has more than 1.7 million members. The subreddit is for "For those bantasaurus rexes who can't be contained," and we couldn't agree more.
It's a beautiful cacophony of posts, pics, and opinions that ad spice to life.

Why do people do crazy stuff? Some people are just like that - they crave attention or are constantly challenging themselves.
And most of us envy them because we could never do the things those mad lads do (even though we know it would feel great to go crazy once in a while). That’s why we are enjoying the company of those reckless individuals.
They give us a chance to enjoy the craziness. And if we are not fortunate enough to have a “live version” near us, there are always awesome places like this subreddit where we can enjoy mad lads, but from a safe distance.
