I do this now but not as much

Extreme Sports.

To say it's fascinating is a gross understatement. But can risking your safety and life in this manner an addiction? I hear the phrase "Healthy Addiction" tossed around. But that in itself is an oxymoron isn't it? I drink but maybe once every two to three months. Never did any illicit drugs. The only vice I see is my cravings for carbs (sugar).

Sorry to sound stupid, but extreme sports as in video games or actually doing them? If your actually doing them then yeah it's very dangerous I think. . I've seen some of these things on TV shows and can't help to ask myself "why" . . . but then some people need that. . . i need order and neatness. . not complusive neatness, just neatness (when I go to a hotel, I make my bed in the morning! heehehe). . .but my "addiction" won't kill me, yours could. . . be careful in all you do. . .

I think I'm just drawn to the dangerous nature of things like Base Jumping. And yes, I do mean actual extreme sports and not video games. :D

BTW, that was NOT a stupid question...

Its the adrenaline rush that people like. Like parachuting, jumping out of a perfectly functioning plane.

Actually, I think just maybe there's a heart of a lion inside you N2! This isn't crazy, people do extreme sports all the time and yep, it's the adrenaline rush about it that is addictive. I think you should do what makes you happy and if jumping off a cliff makes you happy, GO FOR IT! Be smart about it and take precautions but hells yeah, if I had the guts to do it my dream is to jump out of a plane. Just that free falling feeling would be amazing!
