I think mine is a tie between scaling a volcano on horse back or zip lining over the jungle in the Philippines. What's yours?

    I looked into the abyss, and it flinched.

    Beheading, plucking and butchering chickens maybe. Or bucking up wood with the chainsaw and then splitting it with the axe.

    I was a paratrooper. I jumped out of airplanes in the dead of night with a rifle strapped to my leg.

    Was that during the same event? If so, you definitely win, skydiving in to punch someone in the face is pretty badass, and if you were at a bar, I'd buy you bottle service for that.

    Three weeks of trekking in Nepal, reaching an altitude of 5,416 metres (17,769 ft). High altitude trekking is terrifying.

    Bungee jumping, sky diving, and quitting my job in the middle of a recession to do all this.

    I'm wondering where the line between "bad a**" and "just plain stupid" is...:laugh:

    For me, both categories apply: I once chased down --alone at 2 AM--a drunk driver who hit me and then took off.

    Simultaneously really bad a** and really stupid. Luckily I was not hurt. The other party however got busted 6 ways to Sunday by the cops when they showed up.

    Would not do it again, but it makes a funny story. All's well that ends well.

    Skydiving.
    Sparring with a Muay Thai champion (sure I got my *kitten* handed to me, but I was the only one with balls enough to step up).
    Being there for my daughter - always.

    Winner. Mad respect for anyone prepared to put their own life on the line in the name of protecting others.

    See right below the white-ish rock where my friend it perched? I jumped off of that. It didn't end well... :tongue:

    Probably fighting a war against the ancient alien race called the Zunga's, in 7 BC with Jesus, riding on the back of a Haplocanthosaurus, armed with two double barrelled shotguns.

    That, or eating fizzy sour gummy bears.

    Most bad@$$ thing I've ever done... divorcing after too many years of a bad marriage, raising three teenagers on my own, and remaining close to all three of them throughout it all, and having those three kids turn out successful and happy. Maybe not as exciting as ziplining, horseback riding up a volcano, or any of the other things I read here but, in the long run, a highly satisfying experience.

    Still, I am awed by the bad@$$ery displayed by all of you!
