Adrenalin Junkies

[R6_kid:Me]

Are there any others out there? And what other than biking gets your heart going?

Im talking bungy jumping, skydiving etc... EXTREME kinda shit.

Prefer to know who the compulsive types are that do it as a hobby or sport.

Sooooo... whats your buzz?


Personally i've done: Skydiving (10,000ft), Bungy Jump (harbour bridge x2), Hang-gliding, Vertigo challenge (pretty boring), and Aerobatics.

Want to do: solo free fall, Nevis Bungy (137m) and more aerobatics!!! (probably when i make it to the air force)

Considered getting into skydiving or hand-gliding as another past time but couldnt afford to own/run a bike and own another one or the other... maybe once i get out of student life!

fly this pitts for shits and giggles >>

i also jump out of planes, but prefer to watch others jump from my seat up front (this is not me jumping, but it is the C206 I fly)

Yip ive done a skydive from 12,000 ft and harbour bridge bungy 2x (one after the other) and scuba diving(does that count?).

I love the shit but finances are definalty the limiting factor for me, looked into getting a skydiving license after i did my jump, if memory serves me right its approx $4000+ or so. In the right conditons the record was 4days to get it, jumping dawn to dusk.

..... okay.... since when was aerobatics and hang gliding "extreme"?????

working to get my aerobatic rating at the moment... or rather I was until I fractured my hand last weekend.... damn this is going to set me back....

how about driving a 800hp super saloon on speedway race track with 20 other nutters doing the same thing.

I'm not dumb enough to jump out of a plane......yet. lol

Na, I don't like hieghts so I doubt you will ever see me doing shit like that. Though I would do the opposite and go to the bottom of the ocean.

Done it all, now I'm over 50 I find life is boring (but not been shot at -yet!!) but hey, nowadays just staying alive is great without risking that status too much.

Cruisin' on the Superglide with C.B. on behind while heading to a place of solitude and some fine wine just suits me fine these days - luckily we've got plenty of that down this end of the country!!

tell your mrs that her sister is a better shag...

5 Bungy's One with a summersult and another blindfolded. baclwards doing it elivator stlie.

White water rafting finishing with the highest commercialy rafted water fall in the southen hemersfier (fu*k knows how you spell that)

12,000 ft sky dive (found that quite borring)

Other great Kiwi things like Jet boating & black water rafting all good fun

A stunt plane session (not bad)

Scuba diving but I find that quite relaxing. Might be a bit different with some sharks arround!!!!

I'd like to try the old hangliding.

I think that one of the biggest buzz's would come from base jumping though! ! ! !

I still get a great buzz from Track days though.

[scumdog]

Mehhh, seeing as I'm old and all I find a 20km pursuit of a car driven by a drunk disqualified driver or dealing with a drunk armed with a large length of waterpipe does it for me - oh, on a quiet Sunday night a wrestle around with a mental, drug enhanced fuck-wit does the trick too.

[Edbear]

I went on a rollercoaster once...

[Str8 Jacket]

Ive done the Taupo bungy, that was awesome! Im hanging out to try Sky Diving next

[Street Gerbil]

Hell you guys are so cool.
But seriously, does commuting from A to B day in day out in Auckland qualify?

Yes, im very cool. Thankyou.

I dunno about the commuting in and out of Auckland, to be honest I think going anywhere on a motorcycle can be dangerous and if you are stupid enough to live in Auckland......
