    This just popped into my head as I was listening in on a conversation between two of my co-workers where one of them said "Everyone should do that before they die."

    Have you every done something or experienced something that you believe everyone should do during their lifetime?

    I figure this could foster some good discussion.

    Now, if you're going to say you've done something and as a result suggest that everyone should do it, make sure that it's a plausible thing to do. I'm not talking about "eat a chicken dinner at Morty's on the corner of 46th and Wesson". Nobody is going to be able to go to your hometown for a chicken dinner. Make it applicable to everyone. For example, skydiving. Or visiting Disney World (more plausible than coming to your hometown. :p). Be creative.

    I went for rafting last year and the whole experience was unbelievable!
    It raised my adrenaline though it isn't too extreme!
    I definetely suggest you to try it!
    ;)

    Breaking into an abandoned US Blades and f***ing s**t up for days...
    until the cops find out - because you've parked your car where they can see it.

    (God those kids were stupid! :p)

    Another totally relevant comment from silve2!

    This thread is meant to discuss worthwhile things that you've done that you suggest other people should do before they die.

    Perhaps if I were to re-post the question, you'd understand:

    "Have you every done something or experienced something that you believe everyone should do during their lifetime?"

    Do you mean all at once? I'm not sure I could do something along those lines.

    The one in my lip was bad enough. :lol:

    Buggy riding in a vast open desert with no civilization for miles.
    with heavy rock music, huge speakers, lots of energy drinks...and the coolest, funnest bunch of friends.
    It's a ride to paradise...so atleast when you do die and go to hell, you had experienced Heaven for a short while.

    Spontaneously take a roadtrip across 4 states just because you have nothing else to do. :lol:

    EDIT: And silve2, you worded your post so that it seemed like you had nothing to do with that event. That's why Mark reacted in that manner.

    I'm surprised I haven't done that yet. I always find myself driving around aimlessly in the middle of the night. :lol: And one time when a class was canceled, I decided to drive and ended up driving all around Northeast Ohio for almost nine hours. :lol:

    I almost did that with a friend of mine. Her and I almost took off to California, one night. Only thing that stopped me was that I had my mother's car. :lol:

    Get kicked out of a Wal-Mart on purpose.
    Make a three-course meal for some friends and have a dinner party.
    Go to a playground in the middle of a warm summer night and swing.
    Swim in the ocean.
    Adopt a dog/cat/ferret/rabbit/other small and furry animal.
    Get drunk on New Year's Eve and kiss a complete stranger at midnight.
    Walk through a storm drain and sing.

    Yes, I have done all of these.

    Yeah, that's where we went, actually. Texas to Cali for no reason at all.

    This weekend we'll be taking 10 people to Houston because... I don't know. :lol:

    I've been to the CN Tower in Toronto. Going up to the top and standing on the glass floor and looking down at the ground thousands of feet below is one of the craziest things ever. Definitely something everyone should do.

    Well, I'd have to say one of the greatest moments of my life was quite like yours mark. I got to go to the Sears Tower in Chicago and I went to the top and got to look at almost all of Chicago. The view was just unbelievable.
