Peace is a lie, there is only passion. Through passion, I gain strength. Through strength, I gain power. Through power, I gain victory. Through victory, my chains are broken.
That must most certainly take some ballz. I don't find it as impressive as I find it stupid, though. The guy is eventually going to kill himself if he keeps pushing the limits to get the next "rush".
So in your opinion you have every right to judge the woman who was swimming with sharks but not the guy who is hanging off of a crane. Got it.
I was using some restraint with this guy because he's in control of the situation to some extent but truthfully I judge them both harshly....Hope this helps you sleep now....

You really must live a boring, safe, dreary life if you criticize people for doing something they find fun.
I guess you wrote the universal standard of whats boring or fun for everyone (or at least for me)...didn't know that..my bad..... Am I suppose to believe you've never criticize anyone for doing something life threatening?...you keep flapping your hypocritical gums has if you have a good point to make...

Yeah, I give myself and my family shit about driving all the time, given how many annual deaths are related to it. We just can't seem to listen though.
My point is that if we're not doing something just because there's an element of danger involved, then why not just go all out and live in a bubble suit or something.

You don't need to willfully flirt with death (to the extent in the video) to make your life exciting....I think these people are dead on the inside (which is worst than any bubble suit living) because maybe life itself doesn't do it anymore for them......
If you feel your life has to be on the line outside of whats necessary to make what you do worthwhile then I think you may have a psychological problem....or you're just exercising some suicidal intent within you...

It's just a rush that you can't get from normal life. There's nothing in normal day to day life that could compare with the rush of jumping out of a perfectly good airplane and hurtling towards earth. Or jumping off a cliff face and wing suiting down a mountain side only feet from trees or rocks.
It's things like this that get your adrenaline going and get those endorphins up and moving. It's human nature to test our limits and I love seeing people do it.

"It's just a rush that you can't get from normal life." -umm again that's up to the each individual to determine/discover for themselves... Some of us get an adrenaline rush from simply meeting someone special...or watching a scary movie... or riding a roller coaster....
"It's human nature to test our limits" - I believe life preservation is far more pronounced in our nature than it is to unnecessarily risk it for thrills...We do at times put our lives in danger to preserve/protect and going outside of that questions the doers mentality...
"I love seeing people do it" - I find this line funny as I remember how you claimed my life must be boring and bubble suited in nature...lol...
I don't have much of a problem with thrill seekers...its the ones that throw what appears to be 99% control of the situation outside of their influence. Just to feel alive... I think those types are drifting through life with a lack of appreciation for anything....their like the walking dead... Just how I view it...

I still don't see how that would make them dead inside.

Have you ever been so jaded that nothing truly moves you...nothing really triggers an authentic reaction out of you.....life is mundane...boring.....For these people it's probably like that for them most of the time.....
It takes life threatening experiences to make life worthwhile or meaningful (not all of them but some)...They can't settle for the simple joys of life anymore.....They can't appreciate that a worthwhile life can be found in the simple things.....Hence dead on the inside...
