Playing baseball around the age 15:
I was playing second base and there was a runner on third with two outs when the batter nailed a hot grounder that bounced hard to the right of me. I reached in a full extension and snagged it out of the air, reeled around and threw a perfect strike to the plate, just in time for the catcher to tag out the sliding base-runner.
On paper the play may not be so remarkable but it was exhilarating to pull off. It all happened so fast and my body was on autopilot.
