Drop at Majlis Al Jinn, Oman

The Majlis Al Jinn, literally translating to "Meeting place of the Jinn" is a gargantuan cave located in the Selma Plateau in the Sultanate of Oman.The intriguing site is in fact renowned for BASE-Jumping, with Felix Baumgartner, of 'Red Bull Stratos' fame being one of its jumping enthusiasts! The cave has forever remained a trove of ancient fables and myths!
So mah bravehearts, if you're game for some adrenaline-pumping action and are unafraid of venturing into the depths of the unknown, then this dramatic drop would never fail to disappoint! And you never know, you might actually be greeted by a jolly little genie along the way!




P.s This location was originally recommended by Kaushik Srinivasan :)

Machu Picchu, Peru

Amidst lush mountain ridges 2,430 metres above sea level, nestled away in the Peruvian Andes,lies the ancient city of the Incas. The architectural marvel most commonly known for being one of The Seven Wonders of the World, has attracted thousands of admirers from far & wide!
   I suggest you hop on a nice furry ol' Llama ( there'll be dozens of fluffy camel-like creatures out there) and enjoy the panoramic view Machu Picchu has to offer or simply let out all those pent up emotions and burst into a delirious squeal of joy, Something I've always fancied doing!

Great Barrier Reef - Off the coast of Australia

Who could forget the biggest coral reef system in the world? The Great Barrier Reef is the epitome of underwater living organism; being the largest single structure made by living organisms. SCUBA Diving is a wondrous activity to accomplish before you die. It will be chocolate for your eyes, or music, if you're diabetic.

The Great Barrier Reef is one of the main attractions of the South Eastern Part of the world. It is better to sea it now with its vibrant colours than later, due to the rapid increase of it becoming bleached.

Halley's Comet

This is the real once in a lifetime opportunity which dazzles every eye of every age group. It's estimated that the next one will occur on July 28, 2061. Prepare your backpacks. But I guess you will be wrinkled from head to toe the next time you see it.

I can imagine myself when I'm 63 and I'll be watching it with my future wife (if I have one) sipping Mango Juice and watching the comet fly by us.

La Tomatina - Buñol, Spain

Ever had that rage power you that you started throwing Tomatoes at a people? The annual La Tomatina festival is a where people throw red, juicy tomatoes everywhere. It is a wonderful experience and bloody good one. Get it? The La Tomatina is in Buñol, the Valencian in Spain. Held every last Wednesday in the month of August, it is something you cannot miss this lifetime. But every fun things come with some rules and regulations such as crushing the tomatoes before thrown to avoid injury and the only object permitted to be thrown is a tomato. It is surely one of the places I will visit in my lifetime. And remember to mind your belongings and have a waterproof camera!

Sky Dive - Dubai

If there is one thing you must start out on, then it should be Sky Diving. Making your heart touch your throat is an exhilarating experience. With a view enjoyed by birds and helicopter riders (including pilots and passengers), enjoy as you free fall into one of the most wonderful cities in the world. With an amazing view of the Palms and the skyscrapers, it is a sight you cannot miss, and definitely one you cannot forget. So go get yourself a GoPro cam, strap it onto your head and enjoy the amazing experience!
