Fantastic observations… I didn't know about the plane crash.

When I was researching him for my first book 4 years ago, I came across a mention of a list of 101 things he keeps with him of things he has yet to accomplish.

I'd be curious to see how many he has crossed off his list (and no, choking a fan is not on the list ;)

Thanks Marshall. The moderator for that conference session conducted the interview. I blogged it live for PaidContent as a guest blogger.

Mr. Leonsis also shared with us that he had been in a plane crash and ever since thenhe has "played offense" in life. He then detailed his scientifically tested 5 ways to be happy. That didn't make the final cut for the article here due to space limitations, but I'll get it on my blog, as it was interesting as a side note.

Thanks, Marshall, but just to clarify Davd didn't conduct the interview — it was a session at the conference. But David do a good job of capturing it for us.
