McGregor is a ba$tard. I packed a deer down over a vertical mile on the opposite side of the river...mostly on trail though. Saved 3 kids from drowning at the same time.
Was part of a 4 man crew very hastily put together to search for a girl that was swept away in a remote mountain creek. We were too late.
Day hiked round trip, Mt McGregor in north central Washington state.
A brutal 6200 ft elevation gain in 8 miles, topping out at 8122 feet.
Been in excess of 180 mph on a motorcycle at night.
Went from 80mph to zero on a motorcycle in about 1 foot and lived to tell about it.

Come up through the ice at the North Pole [true north] on a nuclear powered fast-attack submarine, went topside, walked around the Sub. on the ice, every direction was South Been there, done that. USS Pintado in 1992. That was the forth time the Pintado surfaced at the North Pole, more times than any other submarine.

Whooped some big guys and out fought several at once. I'm the honey badger and I don't give a chit. 😉 The last fight I got into in HS was 2 on 12. We had 9 of them laid out and the last 3 ran away. But those first 9 girls sure could take a punch.

I cut my ingrown toenails on my big toes out.... poured rubbing alcohol over them. Scrubbed with iodine wipes. Took a utility knife blade about 3/32 from the edge, cut to the pulp from tip to cuticle. Used the blade to lightly separate the exposed nail from the pulp. The used a pair of needlenose vise grip pliers and slowly but forcefully pulled out the ingrown nails... the nail had actually cupped under and there were little tentacle shaped roots that came out as well. I let them bleed for about five minutes. Then packed them with triple antibiotic soaked gauze... wrapped them with me gauze and ace bandage. Haven't had a problem since...

Got to meet and work with John Wayne on a movie then renewed acquaintance several more times years later.
Killed three Rock Chucks with one shot (25/06 Remington!).
Drove a Ford Pantera (fast!)!
Got to meet and guard President Ronald Reagan while he was re-campaigning in Seattle.
Caught a 72 pound King Salmon in salt water off of Afognak Island, Alaska.
Got to meet, at an early age, then fall and love with and marry my beloved wife (the VarmintWife) of 41 years now!
Got to save over 27 human lives (directly and single handedly) over the course of my 29 year law enforcement career.

Not that I didn't respect you before, just that having screwed around with pulling out ingrown toe nails I have found you at a new level of awe. I took the easy way and finally went to the Dr.s to get it pulled.

Had to land an F-4S at 190 knots when one of the nose tires blew up inside the wheel well and blasted everything in the top of the wheel well up into the flight controls right under the front seat. Did a control check and couldn't really control it below 190. We diverted from overhead the Midway and landed at Iwakuni MCAS. Fortunately they had three sets of arresting gear because we were way too fast for the short-field gear. On touchdown put the drag chute out, crossed the short field gear, put the hook down and caught the mid-field gear. WHEW! Thank you Jesus! Talk about an adrenaline rush...I could barely stand up when I stepped off the ladder To top it off, I had a "nugget" RIO in back that basically went brain dead and didn't do $hit to help; couldn't get us on the right frequencies, etc. In a Tomcat I got to fly wing on a Russian Bear Delta (TU-95) in the clouds for over two hours from 30,000' down to about 300' and back up to 30,000' up by the Arctic Circle while they were snooping around the battle group.
