Your anti-bucket list – things you would never do before you die

 I have 2 main fears in life – they are heights and small spaces. And so most of the my anti-bucket list I am sure will come from these two areas.

 

Firstly. I will never throw myself out of a perfectly good airplane. My boyfriend has always had this as one of his must-dos and so I organised him a surprise jump for Valentines day this year. He was absolutely ecstatic and enjoyed every single moment. With every fibre in his being. But for me, watching that plane climb so high that it felt as though my head might pop off just from the sheer angle of trying to keep him in sight, and the way my gut felt when I could no longer even spot the small plane carrying such precious cargo, it became even clearer to me that this is just not something for me.

 

Secondly, I have a friend wanting to take said precious cargo for a plane ride in a VERY small plane that my friend built himself. When I told my boyfriend about this plan that we had been brewing, he was ecstatic at the prospect and cannot wait for the day! My heart wants to escape my chest at the very thought – so that would indeed be number 2 on my anti-bucket list.

 

I will never walk on a bridge with visible holes through slats, or on a glass bridge. Ever. I will not throw myself off a bridge, or even a medium-sized building.

 

I will not participate in any competition where I need to eat something that comes out of a hole or a nest or a tree root ðŸ˜Š

 

This may mean that I have a decidedly boring old age to look forward to, but look forward to it I do!
