How I did it: I was at a small air show where helicopter rides were offered. Since literally hundreds of people signed up to do it, we ended up waiting about an hour and then gave up.

It was a blast. Probably not so much fun if you’re afraid of heights or subject to motion sickness, but I’m neither and had a great time.

When I was I don’t know, 4 or 5, I went on a helicopter ride with my Dad.

I guess I peed my pants from the scare. LOL.
