Nope, and not only that, but by definition, for every 200 people, on average, there will be one who also did this. So its not really very unique. I'm curious, what do they consider top .5% nowadays anyway?

~Rystil, 1600 but agrees that the test isn't such a good indicator

Could probably come up with 5 given enough time, but the first that comes to mind:

- Toured the set of "Star Trek: Voyager", and got to sit in the captain's chair.

5. Seen a guy with no eye. No glass eye, not even a patch. Yuck.

I had a college buddy with a glass eye. One day I walked in on him cleaning it. He looked up at me, smiled, and said "Hi." I nearly fainted when I saw the gaping hole where his eye should have been. I've always been a bit queasy about eye injuries.

Zounds! Are you sure that's top .5%? If you say so, then. I guess I did better than I thought the very first time I took it then...
