[QUOTE="Running Arrow Bill, post: 311767, member: 9"] I agree 100%! People that have a psychological compulsion to get that adrenalin rush or endorphin high from doing EXTREME "sports" should be held accountable to rescuers for their lame-brained activities when they crash and burn. Their adolescent mentality that causes them to think that they are invincible, immortal, etc., ... and when they don't take 110% safety, back-up, etc., precautions... well... tough! "Just because it's there" doesn't mean someone should (realistically) do it. We're probably talking about ego here, machoism... "Hey! Hold My Beer...Watch This!!" Y'all remember the guy who was rock climbing by himself, slipped and caught his arm in a crevace between 2 rocks. He ended up amputaing his own arm to get loose. After he made it back to "civilization" then all the Media praised him on how brave and corageous he was to survive! (There was no mention of his stupidity in going out there alone and/or not having proper working equipment to communicate with). [/QUOTE]
