Although everything they did is not in the realm of “normal,” but still...

The Big Bang Theory is a nerd-centric sitcom with the weirdest characters you could have ever imagined. If you thought that genius scientists are these serious people — forget about it, the sitcom will prove you wrong from episode 1.

It may sound funny at first, but Penny is actually the only character whose actions can be described as normal if you compare her to Raj, Sheldon, Howard, or Leonard. But this quartet is always ready to give you some over-the-top moments, like these five.

4. The One with Sheldon and His Comatose Barber

Every The Big Bang Theory fan knows that Sheldon lives by his own rules and schedule, and it seems that nothing can ever stop him from changing that lifestyle. Season 5 episode 18 was about to make his life miserable. The thing is, it was time for a haircut, but his barber was in a coma.

Needless to say, Sheldon gets really annoying when things don't go according to his life plan. So instead of finding someone else to cut his hair, he went to his comatose barber with a pair of scissors and tried to get a haircut from the unconscious guy.

3. The One Where Howard Crashes the Mars Rover

Howard is actually most famous for his idiotic actions, and 99% of them come from his desire to get a girl to like him. But one time he even outdid himself in terms of stupidity.

In season 2 episode 8, Howard met Stephanie and took her to the laboratory to show her the Mars Rover. He even told her that she could drive it. Well, when you have nothing to impress, you lie… Anyway, the plan blew up in his face when the Mars Rover got stuck in a ditch.

2. The One with Sheldon a.k.a. the Stripper

The Pants Alternative is one of the funniest episodes, featuring Sheldon's most outrageous actions. He was about to receive an award on stage, but was so nervous that he decided to get drunk first. We all remember what happened next...

The drunken Sheldon took the stage and began shouting the most inappropriate things: racist jokes, science songs, and numerous insults. He ended up without his pants and became an Internet star the next day.

1. The One with the Parking Spot Beef

This feud between Sheldon and Howard, which started out as the usual pointless fight, turned into something more cringe-worthy. Sheldon's parking space was given to Howard, and that was an insult to the show's main weirdo. So they started acting even more bizarre while trying to decide who should get the spot...

With Howard breaking into Sheldon's apartment and sitting naked on his favorite spot on the sofa, and Sheldon doing the same naked act in Howard's car, the fight ended with Sheldon giving up the spot… out of spite.
