    Re: безбашенность

    Башня is a slang for head, so it's headlessness, which kind of suggests stupidity...

    Well, "безбашенный" is not stupid, but reckless or crazy. This is the person who acts not considering possible danger or objectionable consequence of his actions, IMHO.
    May be you heard the resembling phrase "сносить башню"?
