1987, I was 19, invited a girl (from the same tech highschool I had just finished) to watch Crocodile Dundee (not a date). Yes I know, this is a 1986 movie, but in the age when movies travelled in reels, releases took time to arrive in Brazil.

Arrived at her home, she was still showering. Her older sister (25 years old, just out of college, a Pharmacist) invited me in for a coffee.

Had a coffee with her and their mother. I was mesmerized by older sister. I had given up dating girls about my age, because too much immature fantasy romance. This girl was independent, bewitchingly intelligent, and beautiful.

I was too intimidated to invite her to join us. In my mind, she would answer "oh, sorry, my fiancee is about to arrive" or something like that, which would have crushed me.

So the younger sister finally shows up and invites her to join. She (thinking I was interested in younger sister) asks me "is that ok?" "YES YES Please!".

We went out as friends for some months, then dated for 7 years, while I went through college and got a stable job. Married in 1994.

We're still together, two "kids" (23 year old Nurse degree and 25, 1 year to finish med school).

I did a lot of awesome things in life, but so far the most extraordinary, happened by pure chance, life changing, fortunate, unlock secret ultimate quest event was meeting my wife.

I was invited to Valve's Game Developers Conference after party. I met Felicia Day and swing danced with her. She's super fucking cool. During that same GDC, I started interviewing at Riot Games and ended up getting hired by them.

There's other fun stuff I've proactively done, but I think that's the big one that happened to me

When I lost my virginity it was with two girls at the same time. Life has been going downhill ever since.

Somebody offered to buy the company I founded....and we sold it!

Was a fun experience to go through and now I have a decent nest egg to fall back on in case something else I do doesn't work out.

It was mostly luck, but the company that bought us still uses the product today, so I guess it was a good deal for all involved.

I got to stage dive at a packed concert, like 4 times. There were a bunch of other people doing it and it seemed like the band playing was even encouraging people to, so I just had to squeeze my way to the front of the crowd and climb up on stage to try it myself. It was just as much fun as I imagined. The other people there were really cool about it too and helped jumpers get caught/let down safely

Senior year of university I was browsing my school’s intranet page late one evening when I saw an advertisement for a “developer interview day” hosted by a Fortune 25 company.

I thought what the heck and filled out the application. Upon submitting the form, I got an error saying that my GPA did not meet the minimum requirements for the position.

I kept bumping up my GPA until the submission went through.

Ended up working at that company for 5 years!

I got to work on the set of Inception! It was super cool, hung around Ken Watanabe and flew Leo to set. His mom was in the trailer with him

I rock climbed a 350mts vertical tall mountain to it's peak. It took me (and my partner) 8 hours to get to the top.

I am extremely afraid of heights.

I was in class one day on a chair close to the wall. A fly passed in front of me and went down under my chair and straight to the wall. I looked at it and then to my desk and saw a paper ball that I had made. I threw the ball without looking from my left hand straight to the wall under the chair. When I looked again at the fly it wasn't there, when I looked at the paper ball the fly was right beside it.

Tldr: I killed a fly with a paper ball without looking.

Lost my virginity in a church parsonage basement while watching Hook. I was dating the minister's daughter and that's where her room was. I ended up married to her for a while. I guess now that I type it out, it wasn't all that legendary.

I have worked for a lot of the really large companies, those that are the largest one in each their respective industry or market.

Siemens, Microsoft, IBM, Allianz, and a number of largest businesses in niche industries that average people will never hear about, like vehicle repair software, international tax reporting software, (anti) money laundering software,...

I also speak six languages and have lived in five countries on two continents.

Sounds like I am bragging, but you did ask!
