Question

به سیم آخر زدن

Comments

Many thanks for the helpful answers. I think both "to go insane" and "to go too far" work well in many contexts (especially "to go insane"). But to be more exact, به سیم آخر زدن means something like "بی خیال احتیاط و منطق و تمام این حرفها شدن" or "to stop caring about everything and start taking very careless risks". Does anyone know of a similar English idiom?
