Pull a Nelson

Rather look across the street before running across just simply run across and hope for the best. Which will never end in the safety of the other side of the road, you will always be hit by the car and break your jaw and many other bones

One man's thought:Hmm instead of looking before crossing this street I'm just going to cross.
Outloud man1:IM GOIN ACROSS THE STREET DURING PEAK TRAFFIC HOURS!
*Man 1 is hit by a car*
Man 2:Dude, you just pulled a nelson. Good job dumbass.
*Man 2 turns to the Camera*
Man 2:Now kids be careful when crossing the street. You wouldnt want to pull a nelson.

Pull a nelson means to overcome against the odds with a decisive win. It's a British figure of speech created from the actions of Admiral Nelson because of his victory at the Battle of Trafalgar. He was heavily outnumbered by French, Spanish and Portuguese Navy's and {prevailed}. This ended Napoleon's plans to invade England.

Wow, did you really pull a nelson, the way you kicked those three guys asses after they tried to jump you.
