1. Considering I live in Maine, I'd pick skydiving.
We have a fairly well known skydiving firm here, and despite my fear of heights, I'd rather jump out of a plane than trust anybody in Maine to make blowfish sushi.

Also, Robbs a mod? :o

4. Raw fish is the devil.
On the other hand, jumping out of airplanes for fun seems pretty safe.

7. Let the blowfish be a blowfish in the ocean.
I don't want to eat him. I'd rather leave the oceans alone and let them be wild. We really don't have to turn the entire planet to human ends.

I've been bungee jumping so I could probably go skydiving. But I'd rather not.

12. I've been skydiving
Probably won't ever have the chance again, but I'm glad I did that.

Not sure I'll have the chance to eat Blowfish Sushi, but I'd probably go for that as well :)

13. Oh, skydiving of course!
More of a chance to affect the outcome with skill.

The other one's just a crap-shoot.

16. Skydiving.

Planes are more fun than fish.

ETA:

They will push you out of the plane if you ask them, right?
