The one thing would be skydiving, but like Oldbuddy, I've reached an age where I no longer want to try adventures that scare me, just want to relax and be comfortable.

As I'm aging I am getting more and more nervous about flying in a plane.  Funny thing, when I was much younger I had no problems.  I even flew to Hawaii 3 different times.  However, I now will not fly during the winter season and am becoming more nervous about flying at any time.  Nonetheless, I have a thing or two on my so-called "bucket list" that will require flying so I may have to take a Xanax and a drink and deal with it!

Yeah but a lot changed after 9-11.

Would have to be snorkeling.  Have always been afraid of the water because I am not that good of a swimmer but would love to see all the colors beneath the ocean

When I turned 50, I jumped out of an airplane.  It was a Tandem Dive, so I am here today to tell you about it!  I was hooked to the experienced jumper who actually pulled the cord and controlled our jump.  It was FUN, although I was scared to death on the plane ride up to the jumping altitude, even though the whole plane full of divers sang "Happy Birthday" to me!

Jumping out of an airplane. It seems to be the major theme of this thread, LOL.

I guess I've never experienced an adrenaline rush, so I have no desire to bungee jump or skydive. I don't see the point.

I always wanted too take karate but my parents always looked down on it and most of the people that I ever knew who took it are idiots.

I hear you.I wish i had as well.My mom and dad were not beach people and had 6 children.None of us learned.

My wife and i have 1 son.My wife knew how to swim and when my son turned 5 she took him to the YMCA program for kids and he learned.

Bravo!

I would love to volunteer or teach in a third world country.  However I believe there is something inside me that scares me.  I am afraid of contracting a bad disease or parasite.
