If you had one day left to live, what would you do? Ride a bull? Throw a legendary party for everyone you love? Vegas? Now if you had your whole life to live, would you lose that drive, or would your list just keep getting longer? This is the real-life adventure of four young men on an epic quest to prove that anyone can do anything. Duncan, Ben, Jonnie and Dave set out with a list of 100 dreams: everything from kissing Megan Fox, to giving a toast at a stranger's wedding, to giving away a million dollars, to falling in love. But they also made a promise to themselves. For every goal they achieve on their list, they help a stranger do something on theirs. At each stop, they challenge strangers with the ultimate question: "What do you want to do before you die?" The Buried Life explores the exciting wonders of human potential and the exhilaration of going after one's dreams - those dreams too often buried by everyday life. "What do you want to do before you die?"
