... from a very young age.
He'd constantly do stuff like ask someone to pour him more water or tea at the dinner table, then pull his glass away to cause a spill.
Our oldest brother took him bowling one time, pointing out the red button which would cause the metal gate to drop and reset the pins. Then my oldest brother worried about it, suspecting that he'd use that knowledge to cause a problem. And that's indeed what later happened! After my oldest brother said he was going to roll his bowling ball down the lane as hard as he could, the other brother pushed the red button and the ball put a big dent in the gate after it dropped! The bowling alley manager ran over to them screaming about it, my oldest brother kept apologizing, etc.
He was a lot like Bart Simpson, the more that I think about it. Except he was involved in worse cases of vandalism than even Bart Simpson, probably.
My older siblings used to think, "That's it! Dad's going to actually kill him now!" Then they'd be shocked how our father barely punished him at all, with a weary look on his face like it was pointless anyway.
Edit:
I thought I was going to die when that brother put a pillow over my face, suffocating me. He was angry because I accidentally knocked over his bicycle in the garage. Luckily, he let up eventually.
He broke a broom stick across my back another time, again for something minor and accidental because I tried to avoid him whenever possible from the time I was very young. He scared the crap out of me, and I'll probably never fully trust him despite how his behavior has indeed improved dramatically over the years.
So, yeah... he was definitely worse than Bart Simpson.
