    I would like to do this:


    A couple of hundred meters higher than the bungee in Africa, and from a helicopter at 500 meters! :)

    I would also like to swim with sharks without getting eaten, and to explore every bit the Titanic wreck without getting trapped or running out of oxygen.

    Space Shuttle.

    Bang, zoom, straight to the moon.

    And on the way back, do a freefall jump from 200km.

    Can't be many more extreme things than than.

    That's some speed he's reaching. Flippin' crazy. I'd have to wear brown underwear watching someone do that, nevermind me doing it.

    Cool video!

    I can tell you how to embed youtube vids on boards if you don't know how.

    Cool video!

    I can tell you how to embed youtube vids on boards if you don't know how.

    is it the numbers and letters in the url after the '=' that you put between the youtube quotes?

    Yep that's exactly it.
    For your video it would look something like this:

    do a parachute jump....without the parachute, point break anyone? :cool:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,414 ✭✭✭kraggy


    I've done a skydive and a bungee.

    But this would be the ultimate wet one for me:



  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 8,867 ✭✭✭eternal


    Id like to go extreme caving like in 'Sanctum'.
    .


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,115 ✭✭✭Pdfile


    go to a student protest and point out the fact that education at that level in most country's isn't free; is a privilege to have. Any work you have to do should be done without question because when you have a Real degree you wont have to worry about petty bills.


    Try and say that and survive... Ryoish, you'll be killed by all the " independent even though mammy pays for everything " bunch.

    Would be class.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 443 ✭✭Colilfc


    I like the sound of extreme ironing.

    The onboard cameras from some of those tt races are insane. 180+ mph with your head inches from a wall! As for the ops question, you could enter the tt and you would come last by a million miles without needing the big balls or skill but those wing suits would take up some courage to try for a first time. Tt more crazy but at least you can work up to it.

    Surely part of the thrill of extreme or dangerous sports is that little niggling fear at the back of your brain (or a massive bloody fear encapsulating your whole body) that this could all go wrong? You don't get adrenaline rushes from playing chess.

    Don't think it's a case of being blessed in the testicular department, more of lacking in the cerebral one.

    Just as in these two cases:
