I'm still trying to decide, I've done lots of dangerous things.

Photos help.

If we go by actual, rather than potential, outcome, then bicycle commuting.

I came in contact with a 7200 volt (supposedly) powerline. The current entered my body through my right hand and exited through my left, and in the process all of the air was forced from my lungs in a bizarre howl.
Luckily I was not burned, and my heart kept beating just fine, and there was no nerve damage. Very lucky.

Another time, a few years later, skydiving, I had an accidental dual deployment. Also not good. Both canopies flew though.

Still here.

sitting in front of my partner in crime while he played with a handgun in the backseat... I leaned forward to grab something off floor of the car as the shot went through the dashboard over my head

Lead Silver Slippers on Lamb Dome in Tuolumne and then Tune Up on Dozier also in Tuolumne. Thought I was gonna die on Tune Up and would have died had I fallen on Silver Slippers.

Got off route going up Snow Creek, had to free solo a sketchy, loose rock ridge in horrible weather. Any slip meant death.

Man o man, I've done lots of dangerous stuff. Soloing at my limit; jumarring a thousand feet off the deck and forgetting to clip my daisies; body surfing in huge waves with a serious undertow; 8 of them, 3 of us in the Mexican desert; smuggling a large backpack full of weed across the Arizona border; snorting coke with John Belushi; driving around Mexico City for a couple of hours with my blind friend at the wheel--the list goes on and on.
