Dangerous Sports
Why do people take risks? Why do they play dangerous sports?
When things go wrong, who pays for the rescue? Diving alone through the desert certainly has its dangers. Yes, there are other dangerous activities – at least five categories of them, depending on where they occur: (1) under the ground, (2) on the ground, (3) under the sea, (4) in the air, or (5) in a combination of these locations.
Spelunking is a sport where explorers go deep inside underground carves that are dark and wet. For an above ground sport there is mountain or rock climbing. These are risky because many climbers, although they are usually careful, fall or are covered in avalanches in bad weather. Many people enjoy scuba diving, which requires special training in the use of oxygen underwater. Surfers get a thrill from the big ocean waves they ride. Bungee jumping is a different kind of thrill. A person tied to an elastic cord jumps from a high place. Cord is just long enough so that it stops the jumper a few inches above the ground below. Hang gliding and sky diving are also unsafe for a thrill seeker since, because of unpredictable air currents, the person cannot always control exactly where the glider or the parachute will come down.
Another dangerous sport in the news recently is hot air ballooning. In April 1999, an Englishman and a Swiss were the first to go around the earth in a hot air balloon. Many other adventures have tried to do this circumnavigation before. However, they had to be rescued in the Pacific Ocean or in other remote parts of the world.
Perhaps there is a thrill that people get from dangerous sports. May be they want more excitement in there lives. Who knows? Nevertheless, these rescues cost thousands of dollars. In addition to ships, planes, and helicopters, other people –expert rescuers-are also involved. They find themselves in the dangerous position of bringing these adventurers back to safety. Even expert mountain climbers on occasion need rescuing, as was the case some years ago on Mt. Everest. So the next time you hear of an adventurer in some dangerous situation, ask yourself: Who`s paying for that thrill?
