member of an Australian band in the late 70's.



My baby dog ... that just died 6 months ago, i wish i had a video of

when we first brought her home at 6 weeks old..she was so cute.



The day i landed in Australia with my siblings and mum of a giant

Ocean Liner..... woa Fremantle was strange .



The Cyclone on board our Ocean Liner we endured for 24 hours on

our way to Australia !

Answer 2

If I could capture any moment, I wouln't want to jsut pick one. Theres some people in particular I love dearly and I wish I could film all the GOOD moments I have ever shared with them. Often in my mind I can create montages of my favourite moments with ones i love, like inside jokes, great moments, hugs, going for drives etc and I wish I could show the world those moments, cause they are the ones that make me feel alive. Things like surprises (May 1st ruled in my books because someone who rocks gave me the loveliest surprise by one gesture) I'd love to have filmed to keep. THen i'd take the montages and make them mini films or music videos. If for every hug, tear, laugh and story was taken with a few people, and i edited them to make many movies, i think i'd have a mini series on my hand lol.

Answer 3

When crossing a busy road opposite a train station in Amsterdam, I was suddenly hit it by a cab that drove approximately 50 km. per hour. I never saw it coming and the car hit my knees side on. The impact threw me at least 10 meters in the air before I hit the cobblestones. Within seconds I was surrounded by people, police and ambulance.

I remember telling all by-standers including ambulance officer (who insisted to admit me to a hospital), not to make a fuss that I was OK.

I was right, I was alive, no broken bones and not even any bruises.



It obviously wasn't my time to exit.

In fact it was a miracle.



What a buzz it would have been to been able to catch that moment on video.



Oh well, life goes on!

Answer 4

When I went down the steepest street in the Eastern Suburbs, Sydney on a skateboard. I was only 12 but I became a legend for a week or so until somebody else did it :p



Those were the days. I'm now 27 and you would never catch me on a skateboard ever again! I wish I had it on tape though... my husband thinks I'm exaggerating!

Answer 5

I would love to have captured on video the moment when I met Nelson Mandela.



It was in a very small meeting with only around 30 people in the room and he shook my hand and spoke to me. None of my friends were there and I only had my mother to share the experience with.



Security was really high so we weren't allowed to take a camera in and there was no one to film or video it, so I always wished I could have looked back on the day.

Answer 6

Apart from having a camera around to prove that my boyfriend was wrong in certain situations :) I'd love t have the moments on film, when i realised certain insights. For instance, things aren't always as bad as they seem, yu won't die if a relationship ends, you can't change someone unless they want to, the world isn't always fair and, i can be wrong, well, occasionally lol

Answer 7

My answer is more for prosperity than anything else.



I would have to say that I would have liked my birth on video as it would be a real kick to see yourself being born.



I also wish that I had a few years worth of video of my grandpa before he passed away. He was and probably always will be the most important man in my life. I loved him dearly and I miss him almost every day. He was funny and loving and we shared a really special bond.

Answer 8

Yes, my wedding? The video man and the photographer were in the same car together traveling to our wedding when they were involved in a serious car accident. No professional photos were taken.



It was a terrible day weather wise, and the fact the pair ended up so badly injured. One can no-longer walk the other did not make it, was made worst by the fact he had just become a dad only a week before.



We had some beautiful photos taken by friends & family. It was a sad day all round

Answer 9

the summer of 2006

that summer meant a lot to me and it change my life for what i hope is for the better.that was the summer i had dealt with an eating disorder and i've had weight issues all my life so the time when i was at my thinnest felt so whimsical everything was new everything was amazing and at that time my self esteem was the highest it's ever been so at that point was when my life had truly come full circle i was so happy that even when my troubles caught up with me it felt good to cry but i guess it's a little unfortunate that i felt the best when i'm experiencing pain

Answer 10

I would have to say our own moment of birth would have to be a good one, with the advent of video cameras i suppose there are loads of these around now, but not so many for those born pre 1980

Answer 11

taking my first steps after being paralysed up to 70% of my body

In 2001 I was diagnosed with MND (Motor Neurone Disease) & given 1 - 3 years of life, most of them paralysed, unable to talk, chew, swallow...etc., etc.



by the Grace of God I received miraculous healing. today I'm alive, healthy & mobile



& don't have on video the moment I walked unaided - no more walking frame, no more walking sticks, no more wheelchairs

Answer 12

My dad was conscripted to fight in the Vietnam War. He was 20, & engaged to my mother. When he returned, they must have really missed each other - because myself and my 2 brothers were made. I wish I was there to capture that moment when saw each other again, after being away for 2 years!

Answer 13

Oh, I see what would be for you to capture on a video all your amassing competitions!



I needed not such thing FOR MYSELF, as the most important moment in my life was immortally engraved in my eyes - my first child face when I saw her for the first time! Sleeping there like an Angel, one of my wishes was to kiss her on her chicks hoping for she shall have ... those smiling dimples ;)



Pay attention to your hardest wishes - they always become true!

There still shall be moments to capture them as LIFE is passing so quickly!

Answer 14

Those moments when I was with my first boyfriend. We both were in our early 20s, full of hope and full of free food and alcohol we received from our networking. It's nice being clueless, shameless and over optimistic. We were a walking disaster. Basically we acted like we were the centre of universe. Everything involved around us. We were matter. We learnt a lot from there on and realised that the world is not a nice place we thought it was. Lots of compromising, broken hopes and dreams. We learnt to prioritise. We grew our separate ways and learnt to be self reliant.

Answer 15

It would have to be when I was thirteen. I heard some noises outside, they woke me, and when I looked I could see my father's car moving sligtly. Thinking that it was being stolen, I rang the Police - very excited - to let them know that our car was being stolen. I was about to go and wake my parents, but there must have been a Police car very close by as within seconds there were lights and sirens, followed moments later by another one. Instead of running to my parents room, I watched the excitement ouside as the Police wrenched the door open and dragged my naked mother and father out of the car. They were re-living old times it seemed, and using the car as a prop.



They have never allowed me to forget my impetuous action. I have never forgotten the site of them "in flagrante delicto". It is a wonder that it didn't put me off sex for life.

Answer 16

One memorable moment I wish I had cam-corded was playing the viola in concert with my 6th Grade classmates at Freeport Intermediate School in Freeport Texas.We performed in a huge concert hall in front of what looked like thousands of people. Experiences like that were quite rare and still is.

Answer 17

Yes.



Me and a girlfriend drove from the east coast of Oz to the west coast.



We went off the beaten track, and travelled along some vast, barren roads, where we didnt see another car for hours. No towns, no houses, no people, for hours or most of the day. And we drove and drove and drove.



It was surreal. And at times a little spooky but what an adventure!



It was one of the greatest trips of my life, and one definately worth recording.

Answer 18

I would of loved to capture my childhood because I don't remember any of it. I remember little peices and such but I truly don't remember what it felt like to be a child. It makes me sad sometimes when I think of how quickly it went by. I just hope life slows down a bit for me so I can stop and think back on those moments and not forget about them. My mother used to tell me that Jesus tapes your whole life, then shows you when you make it to heaven.

Answer 19

The birth of my daughter on the 18 /5/09. Photos will have to do ! She's still a gawjus girl .

Answer 20

I haven't lived very long, so my moments probably that memorable, but one that I wish was captured on video is when I first fell in love with my true love, when I looked up at him and fell in love.

Answer 21

I wish that my entire life was on camera so i could go back to all those embarassing moments and see that they actually weren't that bad or all those happy moments so I'll never forget. I cant pick just one moment!

Answer 22

Well I am lucky enough to have my favourite moment on video. Fifteen minutes to be precise - performing in the opening ceremony of the Sydney Olympic Games.

If I live to be 100 there won't be anything to top that.

Answer 23

When our car broke down near Alice Springs and my husband had to get some wire of a fence my daughters and I, we had a station wagon so to my shock he made us sit right by the back door so i thought blow this we decided to have a picnic with a chicken i bought just in case we have one of our usual bad travel disasters, so traveling at 5 miles and our waiting for a tow truck,but it didn't finish there he took me to the Alice Spring tip to fine a part it was so funny that when i would have liked a video.

P.S You do meet such nice people when you go to the Alice Spring tip.

Answer 24

The last time I saw my uncle which was about 3 years ago, he went missing for about a week. Later police found him and sad he had purposely ran away to a gladstone hotel and killed himself. It was upsetting and shoking for me my sister and my cousin because we were really close to him bacause we had lived with him for about 5 years. He left behind his new born son who was only 2 weeks old at the time, It was also 2 weeks until his birthday.

Answer 25

I wish there had been video cameras around when my grandma was alive so I could have seen what she was like. Old grainy photos don't really give you a good picture. It would have been good to hear her voice and see what she was like because we share the same family but I don't know her. And apparently I'm really like her.

Answer 26

the time when my friends and i were kicking a footie around on the oval. there were 5 of us facing each other, 2 on one side 3 on the other. everytime i kicked it it went crooked so my friend told me "let it drop a bit more before you kick it and it'll go in a nice straight line and hit 'em right on the head". he said it totally joking but when i did it, it went in a perfectly straight line and hit my friend on the head! (she wasn't watching the ball).

i swear it was the funniest thing i've ever seen in my life. my friend who told me to do it was rolling around on the ground laughing hysterically and i wasnt far behind him. my other friends were laughing heaps too but then i told them what he said which made it SO much funnier.

i so wish i had it on camera so i could put it into Australia's funniest home videos.its about time they had some good ones on. but seriously,i would just watch it again and again cos its so hilarious.

cool question

Answer 27

When I was born.....as I remember I was a little fella and yet to develop my skills as a surfer at North Avalon and with a video recorder.

Answer 28

My first solo flight, after about 20 hours of flight instruction. My instructor got out of the plane and told me to do one take-off, one circuit and one landing, then to come and pick him up. I took off, and there I was, alone and 1000ft above the ground thinking "There is no one else in this entire world who can land this plane - except me!"



I pulled off a perfect landing. Nothing in my life has compared to that experience!!

Answer 35

Sorry that my answer has nothing to do with your sport, but when I remarried on Valentine's day this year, I was shaking sooooooooo much that I was glad it wasn't videotaped, At least in the professionally taken photos, no-body would have guessed at how much I was shaking apart from all our guests! (Weird eh? considering it was fourth time around.....lol!)

Answer 36

My mother-inlaw's speech at my wedding. She was in the final stages of cancer and it was a huge effort for her just to attend. She made a wonderful speech, bringing the room to tears.
