Dave, Ben, Duncan, and Jonnie have created a bucket list, and their quest to fill it unfolds on this series, which follows the young men -- all in their 20s -- traveling across North America in a purple bus on a mission to change lives, spread hope and make dreams come true. The list of 100 things they'd like to do before they die includes: kiss actress Megan Fox, play basketball with President Obama, camp at the Playboy Mansion, and host "Saturday Night Live."

    If you had one day left to live, what would you do? Ride a bull? Throw a legendary party for everyone you love? Vegas? Now if you had your whole life to live, would you lose that drive, or would your list just keep getting longer? This is the real-life adventure of four young men on an epic quest to prove that anyone can do anything. Duncan, Ben, Jonnie and Dave set out with a list of 100 dreams: everything from kissing Megan Fox, to giving a toast at a stranger's wedding, to giving away a million dollars, to falling in love. But they also made a promise to themselves. For every goal they achieve on their list, they help a stranger do something on theirs. At each stop, they challenge strangers with the ultimate question: "What do you want to do before you die?" The Buried Life explores the exciting wonders of human potential and the exhilaration of going after one's dreams - those dreams too often buried by everyday life. "What do you want to do before you die?"

    The Buried Life began with a simple question: "What do you want to do before you die?" Out of it grew an inspirational TV show and a grassroots movement that has allowed viewers to live vicariously through four friends -- Ben, Jonnie, Duncan and Dave -- as they put themselves in the most incredible and unexpected situations while traveling the country trying to complete a list of "100 things they want to do before they die." Season two of the series promises more elaborate capers and inspirational moments as people from around the world share their own lists and ask the guys for help. Crashing a parade, capturing a fugitive and raising $1,000,000 in a week, are just a few of the list items they will attempt to pull off. The guys will also try to help two sisters make an important motorbike journey across Florida to bury their father's ashes, build a skate park for a community that has lost four teenagers to tragedy -- and help a struggling rock band get signed to a record label.
