WARNING!

|
The title of this article is conjectural. Though the topic is found within The Simpsons universe, a proper name is not available. |
Bart Simpson got involved in an incident which he skateboards nude, part of it being recorded.
History
Homer asks Bart to skateboard naked to Krusty Burger and back as a dare, which he reluctantly does because Homer would call him a chicken for life. Part-way there, the police shoot Bart's skateboard, causing him to collide with the window of Krusty Burger in front of the Flanders family.[1] When Homer catches up with him and the police, he gets Bart to take the blame for the idea, otherwise Homer would be sent to a parental re-education course. They enter Krusty Burger, when Ned gives Bart spare clothes (as Homer only brought a shirt) and Homer discovers Plopper.
Bart saw a video recording of it when flicking channels.[2]
Part of it appears in a thumbnail for a YouTube video called "The Simpson Family's Most Problematic Moments!", uploaded by Sherri and Terri.[3]
