How come some people don't feel or experience fear ?. They try every adventure sports known to mankind without any efforts. Just like the stunt man you see in action movies. How come these guys seem not scared of anything? I'm sure that if you ask them to join you in any adventure sports and they would be ready to follow you into action within a minute. I am not very brave. I don't like heights, fast speeds or defying gravity. I prefer my feet to be firmly on the ground. Skiing is the only vaguely thrilling activity I have ever done and I just love it. Adventure sports are not really for me but I would surely like to get over my inhibitions and go for it. I am an armchair sportsman; happy to observe other people take extreme risks.
The thing I'd do first is skydiving if I was braver. That must be an incredible thrill, up so high and free as a bird. Some people free fall down into caves and their parachutes open just as it's getting dark and you think they are doomed. Rock climbing also looks exhilarating, even though I wouldn't like to climb those mountain peaks like K2. Mountain climbing in Force 10 winds and frostbite eating at your toes doesn't really appeal. I'm also far too claustrophobic for pot holing and the thought of cave diving fills me with dread.
Beach resorts all over the world are geared up for every sort of water adventure sports. Lying there while everyone else is jet skiing, parasailing, wind surfing and otherwise whizzing around makes me feel lazy. The most activity I indulge in on a beach is a hearty game of volleyball. From time to time I may fling a Frisbee. I want to do something but then it's so nice to soak up the sunshine and there is also all that food and drink to consume.
My fear of heights precludes me from hang gliding or a trip in a hot air balloon. Traveling in a wicker basket under a flammable, gas filled balloon is not my idea of a relaxing time. I'm sure it's thrilling but I would be on continuous watch for electricity pylons, not to mention a quick drop in pressure to send me falling back to earth. Adventure sports like that are made for plucky, optimistic well insured people.
I am waiting for the day when someone invents a hologram suite, you know, like the ones in the Star Trek shows. These are programmed virtual realities, in which you can ski down a mountainside at maximum speed and arrive at the bottom to no harm. That's because the mountain is not really there. Nothing is real but it seems just like reality. In other words, it's all the thrills without the danger. I could do any adventure sports I wanted then and maybe even create a few new ones. Until that time, I'll watch others do their hot dog tricks and bungee jump from high places. Does driving into the city and back count as adventure sports these days?
