While I was still at highschool back in the 70's, a mate of mine and I used to get through a hole in the fence at the end of the east-west runway and actually lie on the end of it. Our excuse was that we were researching wave theory for our physics class. We were convinced that if you lay right in the middle, the jet blast and lift patterns would cancel each other out due to destructive interference right down the centreline. We were very wrong.......
That WAS a rush. We'd be jailed for doing it now.
