One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Ben:
Drinking champagne at the Coloseum. It was my last of the "7 Wonders of the World" so it was a great moment.
Paragliding above Sarangkot (Nepal), with an incredible view of the Annapurna ranges with eagles.
Spending a spontaneous week on a yacht in the Solomon Islands; spearfishing with village chiefs, snorkelling beautiful reefs, and swimming in shark and crocodile infested water.

Brendan- Jumped off the world's tallest bungee jump in Macao, scuba dived in the Great Barrier Reef in Australia, and rode around on a motorized scooter in the busy streets of Shanghai
