Your Top 5 Absolutely 'MUST DO!s' before you die

[Tuumble]

I haven't compiled a definitive list yet but watching the video of Planet Earth I posted in my Power of Music thread makes me certain that I MUST travel this world more.

I am missing SOOOO much.

I'm planning to compile a Top 100 for my blog so if your suggestions suitably inspire me we can achieve a goal together.

Now I would like to go to Argentina one more time and do a really long long road trip there....up and down the Ruta Cuarenta.

BTW there's a book out that might help: 1000 Places to See Before You Die by Patricia Schultz

I think the best 5 things I could do are really just one thing:

Change the world for the best and in a permanent way.

I've already done it with a person's life, so I have a feeling that I'll be able to do it.

Looking forward,

Ive been compiling a list for awhile now but it's so hard to find things you really, absolutely must do before you die. There are plenty of things that would be fun, but worthy of the list?

Anyway, my top 5 of the 23 I have so far would be:

1. Attend a World Cup finals game
2. Complete an adventure race
3. Attend TED
4. Win Streetwars
5. Do something to inspire other people to live passionately (in my sig )

Everyone should post their top 5 so we can all poach some of the good ideas, coming up with these is hard work.

I had a list like that, but I did them all.

I can think of a 1000 things I want to do before I die but off the top of my head I want to:

1. Run a Marathon - scheduled for October 2007
2. The Olympics (opening or closing ceremonies) - scheduled for Vancouver 2010
3. Visit the Terra Cotta Warriors / Great Wall of China - I was in China but never made it to the Great Wall

Eat a live squid like that dude in Oldboy. That is seriously at the top of my list. No lie.

1. Achieve my objective of 2000 visits to the gym... now at 1587 visits...

2. Keep on learning and growing to the very end...

3. Be a recipient of stem cells injections and be cured of a small spinal cord injury that restrict me from running or walking fast...

4. Receive a testimonial from one of my pupil attesting to the fact that I have made him a millionaire...

5. Have five women commit suicide because they finally realized that they could never tear me away from my wife...

I could die tonight and feel I’ve done everything I needed to, but here are some things that could be life changing which I actively plan and think about:

1. Be at Burning Man.
2. Do something TEDworthy and be there to talk about it (or quite happily just be there and soak it all in).
3. Bicycle across Europe and America.
4. Build a plane.
5. Deliver a child.
