I was at the Salt Lake County Fair with my family the first time I ever saw anyone bungee jump. It was like a crane with a platform at the top. I guess kind of like what you would see at a circus where the trapeze artists wait to get "hooked up".
You have to have nerves of steel just to climb up the latter because when you get there, you have a second to really think about it just before they strap you up. If your experienced, you can choose to jump head first, like a dive. Or you can choose to jump feet first. For feet first, you step into a harness, sort of like a child's swing seat. The seat is then hooked up to to the bungees, one on each side at your waist. They cinch you up real tight and tell you to take a deep breath and jump.
You should make sure that you jump before you have your lunch or you might lose it. I have never done it. I don't have the guts. Or do I?
12. Visited Paris-
I have not visited THE Paris....as in Paris, France. But, I have visited the Paris Las Vegas on the strip. Oh, and...I have been to Paris, Idaho too!
13. Watched a lightning storm at sea -
I don't remember if there was lightning or not, and it wasn't really the sea. But I was once on a boat in the middle of Lake Mead during a really bad storm.
14. Taught yourself an art from scratch-
According to Wikipedia, Art is the process or product of deliberately and arranging elements in a way that appeals to the senses or Emotions. Hmmmmm........I would say: No, I have not done this.

Yes! I have adopted 3 of them.
