What is the wildest thing that you have ever done?
If you don't mind sharing, let us know just for fun!
I suppose the wildest thing that comes to mind (Without incriminating myself) LOL is when I lost a bet as a teenager and had to run around my entire block nude. At night of course.
My answer is similiar to JThomp. Went skinny dipping in the river at night while camping in a state park....There were no shower facilities. Got caught by state police shining their spotlights on my husband and I. Dove under but couldn't hold our breath long enough. They made us get out. I never ran up a hill through the
brush to our campsite so fast. They probably said eeeeeewwwwwwwwww, bunch
of rednecks!
The wildest thing I have ever done is to jump out of an airplane without a parachute. I didn't plan to do it; I simply had a flashing thought and responded without contemplation.
As I was dropping like a stone toward the ground I wondered, "How is this going to end?" I hit the ground feet first, squatting like a frog. At that instant I heard the sound of something being torn apart and thought to myself, "That's the sound of my muscles ripping. Death is near."
But instead of the welcoming sound of angels singing, the sound of giggles greeted me, the sound of very earthly giggles. As consciousness slowly returned to my foggy brain, I realized that I had ripped the seat of my trousers, revealing my bright red briefs for all the world to see. The world at that moment consisted of four female colleagues standing beside the pane out of which I had just jumped.
How did I survive such a horrendous ordeal? The plane was on the tarmac and my fall was all of four feet.
When I was a teenager, I went to live with my aunt and uncle after my mom died. My bedroom window was at the front of the house, facing the street. Several times, I had a friend spend the night, and we crawled out the window after midnight and stayed out most of the night--and we never got caught.
Thankfully we never got hurt or in trouble--it was a dangerous and irresponsible thing to do - but exciting at the time.
A few times I pulled the "I'm staying over night at so-and-so's house" ploy and was not where I was supposed to be. Foolishness of youth.
The wildest thing I ever did was follow a rock and roll tour bus back to the hotel after a rock concert, back in 1987. The band was RATT and they started signing autographs at the hotel (from the tour bus) and I got an autograph by the drummer Bobby Blotzer!!
Sky diving from the highest point allowed for amauters with my daughter for her 17th birthday, climbing the highest peak in my country without using safety ropes with my friends for my 15th birthday, climbing down the dangerous canyon without safety equipment with my son and husband while slipping, only a hand of my husband saved me from the fall to death....my son still remembers and we often discuss that I should be more cautious...the one wild thing I am not proud of is my car accident when I was pregnant with my son, we both survived, although my car was a total wreck...I am learning to be more cautious with age....oh, just last year we have got lost at night while kayaking down the wild river full of rapids, we had to rely on our ears to sail down safely and reach our camp...I like adventure, life is much more interesting when you live to the full...
