And here's a few things I'd like to add to the list, which are far more adventurous.
- Built or created something entirely from hand, and then gave it away anonymously
- Sang Christmas carols on the street, complete with candles and funny hats
- Carved your initials in a tree
- Eaten with a stranger, bought their food, and chatted with them
- Conducted a scientific experiment entirely on your own, complete with write-up and pictures
- Went to a lecture on an obscure subject completely out of your field without a friend
- Attended a funeral for someone you didn't even know
- Crashed a wedding, and ate a piece of wedding cake
- Issued a public apology
- Sold something to buy someone a gift
- Hosted a concert at your house
- Attended a public demonstration, complete with sign and chanting
- Washed someone's dishes without being asked
- Broken a record of any kind
- Given a public performance of any kind, complete with hat
- Mowed a message in your lawn
- Changed a diaper in an airline bathroom
I can personally attest to to the difficulty of #17... and I'm 6'4".

Wow -- your list #17! I suppose the baby was still a young, little thing, as I can't imagine trying to change a squirmy, crawling older baby in an airplane restroom!

Ok, I'll reveal my secret... You have to do it as they are standing. Practice at home... LOL.
do u know that u can't get people to come out with such list almost 99% of the time
u are the special 1% and normally people with such dreams will go achieve many things
