"It doesn’t sound that bad, but there are NO hand rails, and the only thing keeping you on the side of the mountain is a safety harness"

JESUS NO HAND RAILS ALL I GET IS THIS SAFETY HARNESS???

Fuck that Jellyfish one. When I was 12 years old, I remember swimming in the ocean, and it took me until I was like 25 feet out to realize that this entire stretch was filled with jellyfish. That was the grossest feeling ever

bunjeeing into a volcano would be more expensive than dangerous

Not tiger sharks though I wouldn't get close to one of those fuckers

i would do 1 and 2. actually #1 shouldn't be #1 anymore, it's gotten a lot safer and isn'treally that bad, and you will be safe as long as you don't jump off the side of the mountain yourself i'm pretty sure. the only other one that i would want to do is 12


#2 just looks plain fucking fun and i would do that in a full knight suit of armor to prevent the burns

5, 11 & 12 - yawn. Why would you even bother?
2, 8 & 10 - would be ok for a laugh
9 - I've done it before but they weren't that big. I'd do it if you gave me a knife. If i'm going out like that i'm at least going to blind one of the fuckers!
4 & 7 - Just looks like to much effort.
6 - NOT A FUCKING CHANCE
3 - I'm happy with the beaches on the south coast of England, thank you very much.
1 - Yes! That looks amazing. The ladder at the end is a bit of a fuckery but I often work at heights that you'd die from if you fell so it's all the same really. Wouldn't even bother with the harness. If the worst happened it would be a good death.

I would like to see Pripyat, i don't live that far from it too :)

I've seen a video on a similar tip to #1, it was from a headcam, and it was on a cliff or something and the guy didn't seem to use harness (if he didn't he was a nutcase though)
I remember some trance or something like that playing in background.

Anyone knows what i'm talking about?

The mountain climbing ones can fuck right off, exhaustion would kill me before the conditions did, im an unfit bastard.
The jelly fish and shark ones... dunno if i've got the stones for them.

Other than that i'd like to think give i'd all the others a go.

Thought you were Bear Grylls did you in them shorts haha? ^^^ :lol: Well played either way!

To be fair the volcano ones look the most intense/idiotic. Fucking crazy people. That bungey jump? What a way to go eh? if it went wrong... Although looking at this vid it's not as intense as it looks on that list. Thought you might go into a little but then again i guess you would crisp a little :lol:



Number one looks amazing. I would do that. Has it claimed any lives? Lol at people who would choose to do it without a safety harness. crazy fucks

Anything mountainous would be an achievment but to me shit like that is like a doing a marathon or any other task that involves a load of training and effort. That aint no tourist attraction. Just go fucking skiing or something. (Jumping out of a helicopter onto off-piste open mountains would be something more up my street)

Anything to do with diving doesn't really interest me. I'd be happy to just go to the Great Barrier Reef or something but again involves all the PADI training courses and shit. Saying that both my dad and older brother love a good scuba dive.

YES YES I know, a mate showed me it. I'll get back to you when I find it, I remember it being more unnerving than #1 imo
