I agree that Snape did a dumb thing by letting HP stay in the room 
alone with the Penseive on 2 occasions, and HP was pretty intrusive 
when he pried into SS's thoughts.

In addition, though, I think HP was pretty dumb to jump into Snape's 
penseive. When he jumped into DD's penseive in GoF, he couldn't get 
out until DD came and rescued him. Same here. What made him think he 
could get out by himself? It was inevitable that Snape was going to 
walk in and see that Harry had performed a single-twist, double-flip 
face plant into the penseive.
