Better To Be Safe Than Sorry

Some people loved to do extreme sports. They don’t usually consider the danger of doing it. As for them, it is part of their adventure. I do think it is fine to explore and experience new things in life, but it is better to be safe than sorry. There are so many instances that it doesn’t limit in trying extreme sports. It can also be within the community itself. There are some bad elements roaming around our neighborhood that have bad intentions. The course of action is to secure our comfort zone and not to be invaded by these evil spirit individuals.

Another very dangerous activity is the cheer dance contests of schools where the throw some of the cheer dancers into the air. One false move and when they fail to catch the one thrown, she could break her neck or spine and be a vegetable forever.

Every sport is risky actually. I ride my bike at a speed of 45kmph downhill. I could easily fall down or get hit by motorist and die instantly. But I find joy in doing that.

@toniganzon Because you're a daredevil :) Did not know that aside from your passion for make-up, you have that daredevil spirit :)

@toniganzon If the fork of your bike breaks, that would be fatal.

What about climbing the coconut tree and on reaching the top there's a snake waiting for you?

These people have no worries about being sorry. Without that attitude they won't be in that kind of sport.
When I was younger I was into that. But now that I have a family of my own I just can't risk my life anymore. However if my son wish to do it, I won't object.

@ridingbet I am strong enough to do this sports, but my heart weakens to see people doing such sports. Thus I will not take the risk of jeopardizing my life.

@Shavkat that is true. i watched some men who do these extreme sports who risked their lives, like bungee jumping and their parachutes don't open so they fall heads first.

I am afraid of heights so I won't be able to do rope cliff climbing. But whenever I do anything - I always take precaution as I do not want to hurt myself as medical bills are expensive!

@cherriefic I just noticed, you are also from the city of Pines. I agree people wanted to do something unforgettable with this kind of sports.

I agree with you Shavjat. There are many rides in different places which instead of giving comfort create headache. Yet children rush for them. One example is the rides in Genting Highlands.

I definitely agree. That's why personally, I fear when I hear that a loved one or friend of mine is getting involved in extreme sports such as free fall sky diving, or parkour. So much can go wrong so fast, and you have no control over the things that can happen to them. That's why safety equipment is KEY.
