    White water rafting. Class 4's and 5's.

    Drove topless down a busy road. I was much younger then.:smokin:

    I ate raw cookie dough the other day - even though the package specifically says not to in big bold letters.

    More stupid than badass.
    Went skinny dipping with a girl I just met that night below a dam in the dark.
    Went back with a friend in the daylight. Broken glass. Concrete with rebar sticking out. Poison ivy everywhere.

    Talked a guy out of an AR-15(scary black gun) at a party when it was brought out because of a fight.

    Black Friday sales.

    I'm sure I'll remember something later.

    So off the top of my head I will go with: Giving birth to my baby at home, testifying against my former stepfather for felony sexual abuse (to put it mildly).

    And a few days before my wedding (on July 4th) my husband and I got into the car naked, drove to the lake naked, went skinny dipping, got back in the car with our towels and drove back to the friend's summer home that we were staying at to have our wedding. That's just one. There are other adventures I probably shouldn't say online.

    I also went scuba diving with sharks.

    Rappelled out of a hovering Blackhawk.
    It was badass for me because I was terrified.
    When you see it in the movies, it doesn't look that high but, when you reach out and grab that rope, it might as well be the top of a building.

    Saved a kid from being crushed by a rock. Not bad *kitten*, but I've never felt so amazing/terrified/strong/faint in my life.

    I also sailed around the world and found a shortcut.

    And won the lifetime achievement award, twice.

    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.

    ^ That is phenomenal. Cheers to you! :drinker:

    ...testifying against my former stepfather...

    You. Are. Awesome. My vote for winner.

    ETA: Could be read as sarcastic. Not at all, I mean it.

    I have held the hand of someone while they died.

    I survived and overcame a seriously abusive childhood and didn't pass it on to my children.

    I overcame a severe eating disorder.

    I put myself through college by working my butt off when no one in my family ever went to college or cared about it.

    I testified against someone really scary when no one else would because they were afraid to. He went to prison and thankfully died there.

    There's not much I am afraid of...I am very adventurous as well. There's pretty much nothing I won't try.

    I ate some pop rocks and then chugged a coke while pulling the "do not remove under penalty of law" tag off a pillow.

    Ate marmalade from a half used jar that was about 12 years out of date. Wasn't pleasant but I wasn't ill. That said, I don't think marmalade is pleasant so I don't know if it tasted right or not.

    I've done skateboarding, snowboarding, inline skating on vert ramps and rock climbing - dunno if any of that counts even if I have put myself in hospital numerous times. :laugh:
