What is something you've done that you believe very few other people have done? Only one caveat: it can't be interesting, cool, or jealousy-provoking.

Been in a plane crash.
It was a Beech 18 that experienced fuel starvation on climb out. The pilot raised the gear and belly landed it in a freshly tilled corn field off the end of the runway. It was a lot like being in a car accident, just lasted longer with a lot more rending metal noises. The port engine was ripped off and was sitting about 50 feet behind where the plane came to rest.
It wasn't cool, believe me...
Any injuries from that crash?

Hahaha i indeed did, a lot. It even was one of the many reasons i am no longer religiouse in any way. But unlike most religiouse people and the catholic church, i am living the values of their religion unlike them.
I myself have no idea how i am still alive, why i never with the knife on my wrists, standing on a cliff/bridge or having my head in a rope already and all it would have took was one small move, why i didnt do this small movement.
All i know is, i somehow am still here, with a clear goal:
Doing all in my power so no one has to suffer like i doBut i am anything but healthy. Like i wrote, i am still fighting addictions that i got from the porn life, unlearning habits from the decades of abuse.
I do not feel pride, but also no shame about it all.
But it defenetly gives me confidence and reasurance.
"I have been threw so much and gotten threw and out. I can withstand this too"The porn industrie isnt inherently evil. It is a job like any other, but it has a very high risk of quickly becoming hell and torment, without you even noticing. You just have to get to the wrong people and before you know it you are trapped and they have you dancing to their melodie
You are so quotable!

A heroes journey! May the road rise up to greet your feet! May your shoes not wear out and your bread not grow stale! May the sun shine on your steps and may you find fresh water when you are thirsty!

Drank breast milk straight from the source as an adult. I highly recommend it if you get the opportunity though.
Please tell me it was cow milk? Nope that also doesn't help.

I'll start. I watched every minute of Francis Ford Coppola's "Megalopolis".
Just finished... it made me think of this topic.
I’m the first of my kind to land on a payroll on my line of work in my country. I’m the reason my job recognized in the national job definitions papers.
I exemplified other companies that we’re worth permanent hiring, so I know at least 50 people got permanent jobs a few years after I did.
(We’re usually hired for gigs or projects)

Is that different than oral? Do you have the experience to compare and contrast?
Bypasses the whole 1-2 hours of anxious waiting. Kicks in within 5-15 minutes peak hits in like 30

I saw the entire original broadcast run of Clerks: The Animated Series. All both episodes.
Only six episodes were produced, and they eventually aired, but I did not find this out until years later. The internet ended a longstanding era where you could be aware of and interested in something, but know fuck-all about it, and have no sensible way of learning more. So I'd heard of Kevin Smith movies - but never seen any. Watching the Clerks movie would have taken a trip to a physical video-rental store, with my parents, and then convincing them (and myself) to rent a vulgar black-and-white movie for all of us to watch together. Wasn't happening.
I was more likely to rent and watch any of the R-rated films that somehow got cartoon adaptations - which were part of that same impotent awareness. Robocop and Ghostbusters and fuckin' Starship Troopers were advertised anywhere and everywhere, and kids liked the shallow cool parts in the trailers, so executives said "fuck it" and licensed no-budget G-rated spinoffs to sell toys.
Anyway. The Clerks animated series exists because Disney wanted an adult-ish show to compete with The Simpsons. Everyone did. Disney knew they had a gap in their demographics for twenty-something dorks with disposable income. Aaand then they handed the finished episodes to ABC, who used a focus group of old farts and children. Of course it bombed. The premiere was the fourth episode produced, which stuck the characters in a courtroom drama, and ended with a wacky consequence-free style change wherein the outsourced animators rebelled and delivered a lolrandom dance party. The second and final episode aired was a fake clip show full of flashbacks to episodes that did not exist.
At least Clone High got an entire season.

Was the first person in Australia to complete dual recognition (tertiary certificate through VCE )
We were the pilot. Of the small class, two dropped out, third failed. I passed with a cert iv in horticulture alongside my VCE.
Well done. That's a decent effort. I can't imagine being so motivated when I was that age.

No idea but it sure isn't talked about, and any time I've mentioned it online people act like it's weird and get grossed out. Just look at the only other reply I got so far.

Um, cool.
damnit have I failed the challenge??
