I’ve gone twice and one of the planes was definitely not perfectly good. Parachute might have been the safer choice.

I hear it’s a lot safer than cruising these days.

Upcharge to choose seats but a frequent traveler friend says he calls about a month in advance and doesn’t have an issue.

The policy is that at least one of us will be sat with the kid, so that takes some of the unknown out of play.

We’re flying air Canada so I suppose if the airplanes are trash they’ll at least say sorry.

I have 12 points plus 5 maybes. Zip Lining/Cruise/Skydiving are definite nos.

Tandem Skydives 15,000 feet in an older lightweight plane.

Maybe a tandem should not count as I don’t believe I’d have went if this dude did not have me strapped to him.

You know you give points for the stuff you have not done, right? If I understood your post, you have 3 points and 5 maybes.

Thanks. I did not read that properly.

Got 14 out of 20. I’m good with the other 6, though.

I am super boring. I have not done twelve of those things.

3 points for me. I don’t do body modification and I’m never singing in public, but everything else is fair game.

Not sure why you would say that’s boring. It’s just different, not boring.

If you took the last 15 years of my life, I’d score really high as well.

I aspire to be boring.

Fair enough.

I’ve done 4 or 5 in the last 15 years. In the last 10 years it might just be 2. In the last 7 or so, just 1.

My score is 16 if we restrict it to the last 5 years.

Getting old is interesting.

My ex really wanted to skydive last year so I said fuck it I’ll give it a shot. I was legit terrified but I wanted to do things that scare me.

This was spring I believe. It was beautiful sunny weather not a cloud in sight all week than the day of the jump it got super cloudy and the jump was canceled. So we rebooked two weeks later and same thing. This legit happened 4 different times to where I was telling her the universe was trying to tell us we’re gonna die. I made a post about it and had all my friends tell me how stupid I would look if I made that post then did end up dying.

That convinced her to finally give up on the idea lol
