There are a couple of things on my to do list.
Sky dive.
Bungee jump of the Corinth Canal bridge.
Spend the night in a haunted and/or abandoned house/asylum.
Fire a flaming sheep out of a catapult.
Work in a level 4 lab.

I don't understand this fascination with throwing oneself off things
I've had to vigorously campaign not to go bloody coasteering for my oldest friend's stag do, because the thought of jumping off cliffs is abhorrent.

I skydived (dove?) once for charity
it was horrific. I hated every second. Fortunately, there were only about 15 of them where I was plummeting to earth at some unholy speed, the rest was quite pretty.

Made me even paler than usual though and the guy I was strapped to said I swore a lot for a lady.

My friends all thought it was awesome though.

What is a level 4 lab?
My lab is on the 7th floor - does that make it a level 7 lab?

Labs dealing with biological hazards and infectious disease are classified into 4 levels.
Biosafety Level 4 is the highest, and deals with the really nasty shit that have no vaccine or cure and very high mortality rates, like Ebola or Marburg, and the workers have to wear the full biohazard suits and breathing equipment.

I'm really glad
my lab's on the ground floor. :-)

We do have some dangerous stuff there, mind you. HF is the worst. Nasty shit.
