Dave Lingwood

Hey there, I’m Dave. I’m in my third year at Concordia University doing sociology. They say I’m the crazy one in the group. I’ve been bouncing around Canada for the past three years and now find myself in Montréal (which I love). I’m a competitive break-dancer and fun-enthusiast, both of which helped my land me an audition with Cirque du Soleil. Although they did turn me down faster then a fat kid at track-and-field tryouts (which I also do), getting the audition gave me a taste of what the world holds open for us, and helped me realize that I can get anywhere I wanna go. It also helped me drop a few pounds.. But seriously, the more I think of things I want to do before I die, the more things I want to do that could kill me. I’m not afraid to get embarrassed cause I know that you have to stop worrying about what other people think to truly start living a happy life. Thanks to my friends and family. I hope I don’t die.

  You have more courage than I do! I still get embarrassed by some of the stupid stuff I do. I still do it, but always wondering what other people think. Your way is better!

  You have more courage than I do! I get embarrassed at every silly & stupid thing I do. I still do them, just can’t help worrying about what other folks are thinking. I could learn some stuff from you!

  I really admire what you guys are doing. More than the making of a list, it is the execution that really matters.

  and as for your quote - i knew i had heard it before, and spent the last 10 minutes trying to figure it out. I saw the movie 6 years ago, and that sentiment has stuck with me. Good job on living it out!

  What you’re doing looks amazing. This is definitely something I could of imagined you doing with your life.

  Hey Dave - great to meet you and good luck in the show. Its sounds fun. Fun to run into you - very serendipitous. So please inform me on where to go on victoria island & Vancouver. I have a truck I can sleep in plus camping gear and I can afford cabins, motels. I like to do it high and low. Hiking, culture, beaches, restaurants, the ladies. Thanks for your help - I will return the favor one day. I will be there in early august.
