Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire What's something you've done that almost nobody else has ever done?

I used to wrestle harbor seals.

ROFL.... Okay..

I ran the Berlin Marathon in "84".
It rained most of the time, hard.

Once guided Roland Martin fishing in our local lake.

Sold guns to Hank Jr. , James Earl Jones, Peter Fonda, & Col. Jeff Cooper

Twins. At the same time.

I got to watch my daughter throw a perfect game no hitter in a state championship fastpitch tournament, and I got to see her pitch her start her first college game. I also remember how infuriated she was when she found out fastpitch had been eliminated as an Olympic sport. She got the chance to meet Jenny Finch and Cat Osterman. Two of her ladies she idolized.

Watched a cloud being born from the night's mist rising from a pond at daybreak.
Gave a kidney to a friend.

I just ruined my key board...

Years ago, I fell out of my deer stand and broke my back in two places. Luckily I can still walk.

Landed a Piper Archer on the east/west runway at Tampa International, as the nose wheel came down picked up a little nose-wheel shimmy, more common in Cessna singles but it happens with pipers too.

Pulled back a little to lighten the nose and then shortly after saw this wheel-tire go boouncing and rolling off the runway ahead and to the left!?!?!?!

AHHHHhhhhh! CH!TT...

When landing a Cherokee with two mains and a front FORK....very little braking is required!


-----------------

I have shot the 30 Sneezer

Shot clay birds with a pin fire shotgun

Fact is I've never done anything unusual, which seems to be unusual for a 'fire member.

Even as a kid my boomerang would come back.

Seriously now, I specialize in witnessing other folks do what nobody else has done. Not many people can make that claim.

picked up a mother/daughter combo in a Miami bar back in 1985.

Bench pressed 530 at 177 bodyweight and 58 years old, drug free. So far, it's the best over 50 drug free, multiply 181 bench, of all time.

I'm the only man I know of that's being stalked by Jennifer Aniston....... not really but there are lots of movies filmed down here in NOLA and I've seen her 4 different times so I tell my wife the she's stalking me!

I've spent 11 months in MD Anderson Cancer Center and lived to tell about it.

I've sat within spitting distance of some world class low fence WT deer and can prove it.

I nailed a Russian chick. That girl could suck a beachball through a garden hose. My buddies called her the Red Threat.

been patted down by the Secret Service, had lunch and dinner with Ladybird .

Piloted a 14 rib boat half a mile offshore in 50 knot winds 4 foot seas and a driving rain to effect a rescue of an overturned kayak not visible from shore. The coast gaurd was unable and the police boat unwilling to react within a reasonable time. They had real boats.

Ran a sub 5 minute mile in high school numerous times, caught 2 smallmouth over 7lbs in three casts, killed 4 toms in 4 days, had sex with two sisters in the same night and neither to this day ever spilled the beans to each other, 6 homeruns in 6 consecutive at bats in high school( only 6 I ever hit in high school)

Hit a hole in one on a golf course, and it was the 2nd and last time I ever swung a golf club. Drunken luck you could say. It bounced off a cart parked to the side and rolled in.

Been ejected from a rollover MVC and damn near walked away unscathed after I woke up. (3 days after found out I had 3 vertebral compression fractures)
