Who the hell comes up with these “Things to do before you die” lists. Swim with dolphins? Spend New Years Eve in Times Square? Stay out dancing all night? You have got to be kidding me with that crap. I figured I could find better, so I took to the streets and asked six fascinating folks from different walks of life to create their own lists of Ten Things everyone should get done before they kick off. We hope you’ll take some of them into consideration and begin living life to its fullest!

Edit:
Alright, here is PART 2.
