What's the coolest thing you've done so far in life?

Snorkeled in the Great Barrier Reef, camped in the outback, and cruised around Sydney Harbor.

Backstage passes to all star weekend in New Orleans a few years ago.  (My aunt worked for Spalding and got to do that ish for everything 
mean.gif
)

Met Dickie V at an event for the Hall of Fame tip-off classic where he was the keynote speaker.  Really cool dude and very inspiring.

Witnessed Barry Larkin's last home run as a Red.

Played soccer against Josh Hutcherson before he became famous

 (He grew up 20 minutes from me).

Couple of other things that people have previously mentioned.
 
Damn nice thread topic, OP. Makes me feel like I haven't lived.

I have been all over europe and west-central africa, so I speak 5 languages. Southern France is the best region Ive visited.

RIP to the homies uncle up there.

EDIT: I have chopped it up with many celebritys just chillin in my hotel lobby overnight when no one is around.

Jeff Ross is a really funny dude :lol:

Few years back friend of mine won the speed channel dream ride and took me with.
Got flown to Cali.
Ate dinner with Helio Castroneves
Met Richard Petty and got drive around Laguna Seca in a Nascar car.
Mario Andretti drove us around Laguna Seca in a two man f1 car.
Tanner Faust drifted around Laguna Seca in his Scion TC at the time.
Met Dennis Anderson(Created Grave Digger)
I drove Grave Digger.
And got to drive a couple of exotic cars.

Went to the second game of last years Knicks Celtics playoff game. J.R. hitting the buzzer beater was insane, the crowd was amazing. Pure adrenaline pumping the whole game.

Went to Morgan State and watched the Goodman vs Melo league game. Basically watched an all star game for $40. Durant and Lebron going back and forth was cool.

And I started the Bull**** chant at M&T Bank Stadium when the Ravens played the Patriots with the replacement refs... I actually almost got kicked out earlier in the game for cursing out one of the refs for a different horrible call.

-met jay leno and gave him a personalized gift, chopped it up with him during a commercial break, while everyone had their back to us(including my friends) when everyone noticed him talking to me and a crowd came he bounced with the quickness. Im trying to do the same thing for Fallon.......

- met and recieved a kiss from britney murphy(RIP)(she was a guest on the show for jay, promoting that movie with dakota fanning) she came across the side(where i was talking to Leno) and i pretty much got thrown by this other guy that was hella obsessed, guy was just recklessly shoving anyone in his way. She denied him an autograph and when i got up she asked if i wanted an autograph or picture, i just put a finger to my cheek and tapped it and she leaned in and did it no problem.

I had just turned 21 and this was what happened on my way to vegas for the first time

Y'all funny. Lol nope haven't been on a ship yet. I'm an officer so my duties aren't as ship focused. Only two years in but since being in I've seen and and gotten to experience I normally wouldn't have working my old boring job. Life is just better now. The whole experience has allowed me to see how blessed I am. I've been to four different countries in these two years

not the coolest thing but one of the most exciting moments. used to work for united airlines and traveled to australia to collect lizards to trade/sell. australia has a strict closed policy on exporting their wildlife so stuff is smuggled out. i had a jacket with pouches in the lining that had a bunch of leaf-tailed geckos in them. walked past the drug dog kinda sweating but nothing happened. went through the metal detector and bag went through the x-ray with no problems. as i was leaving security the guard starts calling me...sir, your jacket! (i guess he wanted me to come back so that they could look in my jacket that i didn't take off). i kept walking and i heard one more time...excuse me sir, your jacket!! just kept walking and i guess it was busy enough that the guy just said eff it and let me go. i was like PHEWWWWWW :lol:

coolest was probably being in a remote rainforest in new guinea at night collecting rainbow fish in a river.

nah wasn't that much money - about $125 per gecko. penalty would have been bad probably. never took the time to research it.
the lizards looked like this:

Been to 100's of live events. Saw some of the greatest bands in history do some fantastic shows. I already have 6 big concerts booked for the next few months.:lol:
