I personally think people that do that kind of thing are fools, and Adrenelin junkies. That one guy(New Zealander I think) who died a few years ago left behind a pregnant wife. Now the kid only knows daddy through pictures and videos.
Why put your life in that much risk, just to say "I did it"? Very selfish and foolish IMO.
