In an interview with The Sunday Times Magazine actor-musician Jared Leto revealed that he and his brother Shannon used to break into warehouses and offices to steal things and get a sense of adventure when they were younger.

He said: ”In one sense, you could just say we had an insatiable appetite for adventure. If we saw a sign saying ‘Do Not Enter’, that was our cue. We broke into offices, warehouses, schools – you name it, we did it. And in the process we became a right pair of little thieves: bottles of liquor one day, a scooter or a nice-looking motorbike the next. It was what we did. Some kids went and did summer camps, we went and stole your car. At the time, I don’t think we thought there was much wrong with what we were doing, unless of course we got caught – that was the wrong part.”

Jared and his brother felt like going to school was punishment. ”We both shared a hatred of school. To us it was punishment, like being locked up, and as a result one of us was always being told to go to the principal’s office for some trouble we’d caused,” Jared said.
