Hot air ballons on the countryside of France............with my husband who miraculously inherits money from people he never knew existed in his life.......

That would be my fantasy.

I would go up in the space shuttle...it would be so cool to see the view from up there...and of course I'd love to get a chance to land the world's coolest glider

I'd do 4 of the 5. Not keen on mountain climbing.
And I already have ridden in a hot air balloon, and it was so cool! Unbelievably serene, and since you're safely enclosed in the basket it doesn't even feel like you're that far up.

Um, I hate heights, but I'd probly have to choose hot air balloon - as its probly the less dangerous of the 5.

That's why I chose that one too. I'm usually okay really high up if there's a railing or something, and since in this scenario I would be in a basket I think I'd be fine.

I mulled over the idea of the space ship, but it just seems too dangerous.

The danger of doing certain things are not due to the inherent complexity of the danger of certain things, but the people you do it with.

If I read a book with Christina (dangerous) it would kill me. If I go look for crocodiles with Steve Irwin (safe) I would be safe. Too bad Steve Irwin had died. I wished he had stayed with crocodiles.

Willingly? I'd go up in a hot air balloon, in a heartbeat. As for the others, I have exactly NO desire to do any of them. I might consider them if the price was right -- and I haven't the slightest idea what that would be, either.

Hot air balloon if I had to choose. I'd be afraid of jumping our of an airplane, the space flight or bungee jumping even with expert partners. I don't have the physical strength for mountain climbing plus I'm a klutz.
