An E-195 crew performed an intersection takeoff in Belgrade. After being warned by the tower that they'd taken the wrong intersection and being offered the chance to backtrack to the originally assigned intersection, the crew elected to take off anyways with just over 4,000 ft of runway remaining. As can be seen at the following links, it didn't go well. They were lucky to bring it back in one piece - sort of.

They’re lucky they’re not dead.
