Making a list of fun challenges to do with friends guarantees you’re going to make some fantastic memories together. Challenges range from small games like Chubby Bunny to huge life goals like traveling across your country or seeing a new part of the world. Do the entire list with one friend or break it up to include a ton of people you love hanging out with.

These lists are not only hilarious, they also involve some huge accomplishments.

13 fun challenges for you and your friends

Side note? Your safety is always more important than jumping into a sub-zero lake in your undies or trying to eat a million pickles! When it comes to fun challenges to do with friends, it’s always safety first. Now without further ado, here are 13 challenges you’re going to love.

#1 Travel across your country. Want a challenge that involves a little legwork? Instead of shoving food into your mouth and throwing it on the internet, why not make your challenges a little more memorable. Make it your goal to travel around your country with your friends over the course of the next year. [Read: 15 reasons why you should travel at least once a year]

#2 Chubby Bunny. Who hasn’t heard of Chubby Bunny? This classic food challenge involves shoving as many marshmallows into your mouth as you can and then exclaiming “Chubby Bunny” audibly. The winner is the friend who says the phrase clearly with the most marshmallows in their mouth.

#3 Waterfall challenge. What’s more beautiful than chilling on a rock in front of a massive waterfall, taking in the sights and sounds of nature? Basically nothing. Similar to traveling across your country, the waterfall challenge involves scoping out exciting sights and checking your list off one waterfall at a time.

There are actually printable lists of waterfalls found around the world for you to explore. Here’s a top four to get you inspired:

– Yosemite Falls, Yosemite National Park
– Victoria Falls, South Africa
– Niagara Falls/Horseshoe Falls, Canada
– Ban Gioc–Detian Falls, Vietnam

Start with a top five list and make it your goal to visit all of them in the next couple of months. Bonus? I personally know a whopping three girls who have done this challenge with their boyfriends and all ended up engaged by the end of the experience. So, if you’re looking to get hitched, this challenge may be the right path for you. [Read: How to have fun with friends – 30 really fun ways to beat boredom]

#4 Bean Boozled Jelly Beans. Bean Boozled is one of the most fun challenges to do with friends. If you’re way behind on social games that involve candy, let’s fill you in.

In this game, each color jelly bean has one of two tastes. For example, the pink jelly bean may taste like a strawberry smoothie or it may taste like a dead fish. The white jellybean may taste like beachy coconut or rotten milk. Peach might be barf, berry might be toothpaste, and buttered popcorn may be rotten egg.

Believe it when people say these really taste like what they say they do. This game of chance is definitely hilarious to play, but not for those with a weak stomach!

#5 Racing challenge. No, this doesn’t mean challenge your friend to a race around the block—though that’s totally acceptable too. We’re talking challenging your bodies and training for a community race. Taking up a local race with a friend is a great way to challenge your body while supporting a local cause. Search Run for Charity to find a cause to support. [Read: The real meaning of YOLO – 15 ways to live life to the fullest]

#6 No mirror makeup challenge. Get your friends together and try to put your full face of makeup on without any mirrors. The results are going to be both hilarious and horrifying. If you’re extra brave, head out for a drink or a coffee post-challenge and see who’s really the bravest among you!

#7 Accent challenge one. What do you call a sweetened carbonated beverage: pop, soda, or a soft drink? This is just one of the fun questions in the Accent Challenge tag. This is a great challenge to do with friends to get to know each other’s background.

This challenge asks you to identify objects to see if where you come from has a different idea what to call a can of Coke than your other friends. This challenge also has you pronounce different words such as “caramel” to see what kind of accent you have. Definitely a short and sweet challenge to do with a group of friends.

#8 Accent challenge two. The second version of the accent challenge is more literal than the BuzzFeed version. Make a list of cards with different accents on them. Group up into teams, put on a one-minute timer and have your friends take turns doing the accents on their cards and see if their partner can guess which accent they’re trying to do.

#9 Card castle challenge. Challenge your friends to a card castle building challenge. This may sound a little 1980’s, but this challenge gets intense.

#10 No thumbs challenge. Tape your thumbs to your forefinger so that you can’t use them and try to complete a list of tasks. Whoever completes the task first wins.

Tasks include writing your name on a piece of paper and then cut the paper in half. Other tasks include tying your shoelaces, open a pack of crackers, and make a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. If you’re playing this one with a lover you can definitely create a dirty version. [Read: 10 dirty drinking games for naughty guys and girls]

#11 Smoothie challenge. This is truly one of the most disgusting fun challenges to do with friends. Gather together a bunch of delicious smoothie ingredients together such as strawberries, bananas, peanut butter, and yogurt. Gather together an equal number of disgusting ingredients such as mustard, horseradish, cold cuts, and soy sauce.

Write down each ingredient on a piece of paper. Once you have written out each ingredient, fold the pieces of paper and throw them into a jar. Take turns drawing scraps of paper until the jar is empty. Mix your separate smoothies and have a race to see who finishes their smoothie without losing their lunch.

#12 Whisper challenge. The whisper challenge is definitely a fan favorite. The rules are simple. One friend wears headphones listening to loud music while their other friends whispers a phrase or word. The friend wearing the headphones then guesses what the whispered word is.

This game has been featured on Jimmy Fallon and has quickly become an adorable way that people are announcing pregnancies and engagements. All together now: Awww!

#13 Pickle challenge. Similar to the Chubby Bunny challenge, the Pickle challenge involves shoving a bunch of pickles into your mouth and devouring them. Think your love of pickles knows no bounds?

Trust me, this is going to be the tipping point. Line your pickle jars in a row and get ready for some action. Have everyone in your group of friends eat an entire jar of pickles, including all the juice. See who can get through the vinegary goodness first.
