There is something that some people have done. If a person has done it, they can also (correctly) say that they have not done it. What is it? |

Suicide? (If you're able to talk to somebody about it, clearly you weren't successful) No, I don't know why my brain immediately goes to the morbid stuff. People... human? adults? Can kids do it? Non-crawling infants? Is it related to a particular profession? A particular hobby? Is this something fictitious? |

Something like beating a world record (once you have done it, the record is changed so you haven't exceeded the new one)? |

Suicide? (If you're able to talk to somebody about it, clearly you weren't successful) No -- if you were successful, you couldn't say that you'd done it. {No, I don't know why my brain immediately goes to the morbid stuff.} People... human? Yes adults? Usually Can kids do it? Yes Non-crawling infants? Yes, technically Is it related to a particular profession? Yes A particular hobby? See prev Is this something fictitious? No Something like beating a world record (once you have done it, the record is changed so you haven't exceeded the new one)? Good thought, but No |

Any of the following career fields relevant? If so which? Agriculture Architecture Biological and Biomedical Sciences Business Communications and Journalism Computer Sciences Culinary Arts and Personal Services Education Engineering Legal Liberal Arts and Humanities Mechanic and Repair Technologies Medical and Health Professions Other Physical Sciences Psychology Service Industry/Sales Sports Transportation and Distribution Visual and Performing Arts Non-crawling infants can technically because... They can physically do it but might not be able to talk about it (until they're older)? Can newborns do it? (The 1 minute old, blind, screaming, arms flailing, still covered in blood kind) |

Perform on Broadway? (Technically you're performing in the theater, not in the middle of one of the busiest streets in the world.) Visual and Performing arts... which media is relevant? (If at all?) Play? Television? Movies? Home Videos? YoutTube Videos? |

Beauty Contest? Even if you get crowned "Most beautiful baby" - by the time you can talk about it, there's a new winner? |

Does this... non-visual performing art involve... Speaking? Singing? Hearing? Smelling? Tasting? |

This action can be seen by some as some sort of "performance" while some others would regard it like a normal act? (like, e.g., a stunt may be seen by those in the profession like an everyday job activity). At least OTRT? |

4'33"? Yep. **********SPOILER********** The activity is listening to the piece "4'33"" by John Cage. The piece is entirely silent, so if you've listened to it, you haven't heard it at all. Nice solve Enjay. New puzzle when I can come up with one. |
