Ok… that’s
the kind of list that everyone disagrees in some points, but everyone has an
opinion about it too. Life is too short
to just sit around in a day like this and I bet you are not getting any
younger… so, here are some to-do’s; some are quite expensive, but hey – that’s
a lifetime wish list. What would you
like to do before you die?
1 – Skydive
Who never
wanted to jump from a plane at 10,000 feet altitude and fall down to a terminal
velocity of around 150mph? If you want
to feel alive in an extreme way, that’s something to be considered.
2 – Invent
something
Who never
had an idea and wished to see it in the real world? Have you ever felt that something doesn’t
work the way you want and that you could improve it somehow? Just go for it and free your mind! Here are
two websites you could use to create and patent your idea.
3 – Zorbing
Get inside
a huge hamster-like ball and go downhill; yep, that sounds fun! Originated in New Zealand
4 – Ride a
thrilling roller-coaster
With so
many exciting roller-coasters in the world, you only have to choose… which is
going to be the first one.
5 –
Bungee-Jumping
Wikipedia
describes it as: “an activity that involves jumping from a tall structure while
connected to a large elastic cord. The tall structure is usually a fixed
object, such as a building, bridge or crane; but it is also possible
to jump from a movable object, such as
a hot-air-balloon or helicopter, that has the ability to hover above
the ground. The thrill comes as much from the free-falling as from the
rebounds.” I guess I could do it… again.
6 – Realize
a childhood dream
Maybe when
you were a kid, you dreamt about visiting the pyramids of Egypt
7 – Take a
trip to places you always wanted to go
Why not
visit the Eiffel Tower, spend a week
in Barcelona, go on a cruise around Sicily,
check out the Oktoberfest in
Munich, see what the Brazilian Carnaval
is all about and walk the Great Wall of China?
There are so many trips to go on; you better start planning!
8 – Swim
with the sharks
That is
definitely a scary, exciting and cool thing to do!
9 – Go
zero-gravity
As being an
astronaut isn’t for everyone, you can either go with Virgin Galactic (if you can afford it)
or choose cheaper ways to experience weightlessness, as gozerog.com.
10 – Take flight lessons
Is flying
for everyone? I don’t care; it’s sure an
amazing experience or hobby. I bet you
can find some place not so far from where you are just like Pilot Journey.
11 – Go up
in a hot-air balloon
It doesn’t
matter if you’re going by yourself or with your beloved one; riding in a
balloon must be a wonderful sensation.
12 – Run a marathon
(or half)
Do you feel
like you don’t know what your limits are anymore? This achievement would set
you in a great shape and it’s nearly free of cost; all you need is your will!
13 – Write
a letter for the future you
“Dear future
me: when I’m 50 I certainly hope to have a Porsche, a house by the beach and hair. Please, tell me that nothing went wrong…”
14 – Stay a
night in the hotel of your dreams
Why not
staying a night in the underwater suite of the Poseidon Undersea
Resorts? It’s only $ 15,000…
15 – Go
supersonic
When I
watched Top Gun for the first time I remember thinking: “I wanna do that!” If
you also wanted to fly a MiG-29, book your dream flight at jetdiscovery.com or some other company like it.
16 – See
for yourself that the world is round
The surest way is to go in one direction and not stop until
you're back to the start again. For a cheaper and more relaxing method, journey
north of the Arctic Circle around the summer solstice and spend a night in a
hot tube watching the sun circle above the horizon.
17 – Buy
your dream car
Whether is
a SUV or a convertible, everybody has a “car crush” in their heart and, even if
you sell it 6 months later, it’s gonna be unforgettable.
18 – Be
someone else for a day
Go to another
city where no one knows you, wear a hat and be a famous race-car driver;
whoever you decide to be, just remember one thing: take pictures because it’s
going to be funny.
19 – Swim
naked
That’s
something easy to do, but really refreshing… if you haven’t tried it yet, don’t
get mad… get naked.
20 – Fall
in love
