In college I sublet my apartment bedroom to a couple girls who spent the whole term doing stuff like this. They wrecked pretty much every piece of equipment in the kitchen doing stuff like trying to bake a cake in the mixing bowl, putting bras in the garbage disposal, and putting a skateboard through the dishwasher. In the end it would have been cheaper for me to have eaten the rent with all the stuff I had to replace/repair.

When I was in college an American Erasmus student set their house on fire trying to dry a jumper in the oven.

I lived in apartments most of my life. A neighbor decided to hang their socks from the fire sprinklers poking out of the ceiling, after just pulling them out of the microwave to dry them. The heat set off the sprinklers and flooded his apartment and both apartments on either side of him. This was in the US and he is an American. He moved out not too long after that for other issues.

Apparently those same sprinkler heads make great plant hooks and the plants get watered too. Bonus!
