What was the most adventurous moment of your life?

when i was left homeless and slept on the beach for 9 month at 12. i then got put into the foster system and went thru a few different fams from different places, missed tons of school but i have gotten to experience things people go their entire lives without experience.. so i am grateful that, i may not be book smart, but that i now have the ability to see things from a perspective most never see, which, to me, provides insight. not only was on an adventure then, but my adventure continues everyday..i know my destination, i just dont know what paths i will take to get there. hope i answered the question.. one thing school did teach me, was to skim and scan.

On 7/7/70 I set out to sail around the world on a 49' sail boat. I'd done plenty of sailing, but this was the real deal; crossing an ocean on a little wooden boat. It was the start of an adventure I am still living today, and I wouldn't trade a minute of it for all the money in the world.

Uh... Being born, I guess? It sure was an adventure! I was brought into a new world!

skydiving. That experience meant the world to me

my entire childhood I idiotically prayed perhaps everyday to be granted the ability to fly. All the way until age ~13 when not only did I get less religious but also realized via laws of physics that could never happen. I still had dreams where I could fly, and I savored them as much as I could.

but then I finally skydived. It was perfection; the clouds, cold atmosphere, blue sky. Sigh. And I have to say it's a good thing they don't let you jump all by yourself the first few times cause I would've been dead. (which frankly is probably not a bad way to go lol) I was so mesmerized and lost in the moment that I didn't even think of deploying the parachute. So thanks Mr. Instructor-strapped-to-my-butt.

But skydiving is too quick to really savor anything. My next "adventure goal" is to hang glide. Much more airtime. But since they cost a whopping $2000+, it wont be until I finish school

I used to go rock climbing almost 25 years ago. Also, about 11 years ago I smuggled a whole harvest of California(Blueberry to be precise) chronic across state lines from California to Nevada.

I tried to type a good story three times and realized that it more accurately fit the criteria for "dumbest situation I have ever gotten myself into" so to hell with it! I'm just going to go with the funniest.

I was walking through my neighborhood at dusk when some stupid thug ran up to me and tried to rob me at knifepoint. By stupid, I mean that this guy was an imbecile. I happened to be standing next to a mailbox that had fallen on the ground (probably teenagers) and I picked it up and hit him in the face with it.

I should have just run away but I was in such a bad mood that night. I picked up his knife, laughed at him, started acting like I was going to take a piss on him and he freaked out, got up and just stumble ran away.

I felt like such a dick for that. I'm laughing just remembering it.

Going to fucking Mars, that's what I'd wanna do :)

Out of the stuff I've done, most adventurous was probably doing my driving-as-long-as-possible-without-any-sleep challenges I used to do in my early 20s. 1000 miles (1600km) was my record. Ahh, the good old days :)

Walking on freshly cooled lava.

Crossing the North Korean border.

Wading through knee deep ice water to get to the city of Petra.

Having children.

Probably being chased by twenty to thirty people after beating the crap out of two people that tried to choke my friend. It was pretty fun, I got my whole Assassin's Creed on and was climbing everything and laughing while they tried to do the same.

I have had many many adventures. Among the best were scuba diving the Great Barrier Reef in Australia, and flying a sail plane over Napa Valley, California.

I went sky diving 3 years ago. Talk about Google satellite view...

I don't have any, sadly...at least not yet.
