Tenerife Forum members, what is the most daredevil thing you have ever done?

I was persuaded by some colleagues to take part in a Zip slide over the Clyde from the Finnieston Crane in Glasgow. (Must have been hoping it would go wrong)

The worst part was actually climbing the crane and standing waiting at the top.

I've attached a pic to show the crane. Our apartment was in the taller block to the right of the crane about 3 floors from the top. I didn't have far to go to get home anyway

I have it on DVD somewhere so I'll upload it to youtube later on.

Yes! and it was a really cold day and we had to stand for 2 hours watching.
I wish I had of just watch from our flat, which was just behind the crane

I did a firewalk to raise funds for a special care baby unit at my local hospital
Photo's are a bit blurry but a fab night and there really isn't any magic gel to put on your feet just 1200 degrees!!!

I did a bungee jump dressed as Wonder Woman on American Independence Day (4th July) to raise money for an Animal charity in Greece...

...not so daring, you might say, as loads of people do bungee jumps... but think about the aspect of a strapless costume and gravity... You can guess what I was holding on to as I jumped
