Everyone has a list of things they want to do before they die. Whatever is on your list, it summarizes the things you want to achieve in this lifetime. If you do not have one, start it now. Here are some suggestions of 10 crazy things to do before you die.
1. Sky Dive.
This is probably the most extreme and exhilarating sport out there. Nothing beats the freedom of jumping off a plane and feeling like Superman just for a few seconds. It is scary, crazy but empowering all at once.
2. Watch a final match of a world cup event, live.
For the sports fans out there, watching a game on TV is already exciting. Imagine if you see all the action live. There is probably no feeling in the world like watching your team win (or lose) a final game.
3. Witness the Northern Lights in Alaska.
Once in your life, head to Alaska to see the most amazing phenomenon in this world, the Northern Lights. It is not your typical holiday destination, but the trip will be well worth it.
4. Live in a foreign country for at least 3 months.
There is no better way to learn another culture than to experience it first hand. Living in a foreign country for an extended period allows you to do that. The more foreign it is to you, the better. The experience will be unforgettable.
5. Bet $100 on ‘Red’ in Roulette.
It is a game of chance so on one of those days where you are feeling lucky, go and make an outrageous bet. It could payoff. Whatever the outcome, it is the thrill of it that counts.
6. Go on a blind date.
Just for a night, trust a friend completely to set you up with a random stranger. You could hit it off, or it could blow up in your face, but you will surely have an interesting story to tell.
7. Say ‘I Love You’
Say it and mean it. When you fall madly in love with someone, you will experience all sorts of feelings that you will remember your whole life. Life is incomplete if you die without falling in love at least once.
8. Help someone without wanting something in return.
Helping a person out of the goodness of your heart is so fulfilling. It will humble you, make you smile, make you appreciate what you have and the best part is, it will make a difference in someone else’s life.
9. Watch the sunrise.
Seeing darkness turn to light, literally, is a breath-taking sight. Yes, you have to wake up way too early in the morning (or stay out really late), but you will not regret it.
10. Do something stupid.
Life is no fun if you always play by the rules. Do something utterly stupid and embarrassing on purpose, just to be carefree and confident. Just for a moment, forget about what everyone else thinks.
It is said, ‘don’t take life too seriously, you don’t get out alive anyway’. Life is short so live it before its too late.
