Jumped out of an airplane at night with all sorts of bad people shooting up at you with murderous intent. Got hit in the flak vest with a couple of bullets, and have invested some money with DuPont "better living through chemistry"! Still have the vest with the bullets embedded in it. Afterwards, it's given me a new perspective on life. When something really ugly happens and everyone is melting down, screaming, "It's a matter of life or death!" I go to work fixing it, because I can truly say, "I've seen life. I've seen death. This doesn't even come close to either one." Really puts things in perspective. Did something that really scared me.
