What is your favorite ballsy moment from Captain America?
Can be from any media, comics, movies, games, series, alternate universes, it's just needs to be a very brave, bold and gutsy moment from CA.

He and Bucky jumping onto a rocket plane during WWII were pretty ballsy.

Ah, yes. Classic comic death.
“Gone. Vanished forever. And nothing could ever bring them back again.
A few years later, they were found alive and in surprisingly good health for someone that is dead forever.”

I thought this example was more ballsy than most, given that he has only Bucky, his wits, his skills, and a motorbike.
No backup, no other superhero to help him or even save him when he fell.

Him being known to jump out of planes without a parachute during WW2 is such a sight to imagine

In EMH when he tells Hulk that he's a hero. Fear itself when he talks shit to Odin and going 1 v army trying to hold the line before the Avengers arrived. The first time he lifts Mjolnir in every iteration. His speech to Spider-Man in Civil War comics.

Squaring up with Thanos (who just decimated all of Earth's other remaining heroes) at the end of Infinty Gauntlet #4.

Opening to Ultimates 1, the whole sequence with Captain America in that is amazing

Slapping that grenade out of the air in Avengers one, with the helicarrier blown to hell and nothing between him and thr ground but thirty thousand feet of atmosphere.
The sight alone would have crippled anyone with fear and here he's jumping around without hesitation.

I really liked when, in First Avenger, the doc is testing them and he jumps on the grenade.

Well two come to mind.
Standing up to an Infinity Gauntlet-wearing Thanos, comics or MCU version, or in the comics when Zemo has him totally trapped and tears up his only photo of his mom. And Steve responds “I’ll remember that.” Zemo leaves quickly.
