Queensland Will Let You Act Out The Movie Stunts Of Your Dreams
When we're on vacation, being set alight or jumping off tall buildings is not exactly high on our list of must-dos. But everybody's different, and if you've dreamed of performing stunts like you see in the movies, then on the Gold Coast in Queensland, Australia, you can find just the right place to spend a day.
The Movie Stunt Experience is a day out that still has the thrills and spills of a typical Gold Coast theme park, but you're the one doing the spilling. If you book the A$299 ($275) full day program, experienced stunt people will first teach you and then let you try film fighting choreography, flying on a wire, commando-style abseiling, falling from a pretty great height and, perhaps scariest of all, being set on fire. So far, every tourist has come out alive. See if you can break the record.

"Welcome Back"
The lovable scamps of Improv Everywhere have struck again, this time catching our eye with perhaps the ultimate travel luxury: Twenty "agents" took over a JFK baggage claim and welcomed home complete strangers.
With a huge banner, flowers and Mylar balloons, the spectacle was no small show. Not that we should be expecting small potatoes from IE: These are the same people that have organized stunts in Grand Central and a world-wide "MP3 Experiment."
