I parachuted down from a cliff, although even there the risk is slim if you take the safety precautions.

For fun, I decided to spiral down, but that made me fearful for my life for a second.

(In fact, I reckon doing dangerous things is less disturbing to me than is saying things that could hurt social standing or perception. Just the way I am.)

I attended public schools.

I drove on public roads... and continue to do so - harddddcore!

Ron Paul is for self-government when compared to the Constitution. He's an anarcho-capitalist. Proof.

Spending some time in a country with a government monopoly on guns - statistically that's by far the most dangerous thing you can do.

You BASE jumped?  Without any skydiving experience?  How high was the cliff?

You realize you are asking a subjective question, no?  I have done some safe things that alot of people would describe as dangerous.  I decide what is dangerous and safe for me.  No one else will tell me otherwise.  Such as public affection.  I say no more.  ;)

I attended public schools.

I refused to attend.  That is my serious answer.

My joke answer: I was female and had a male partner.
