I had more options in this list, but GaG limits it to only 7

[crystalshadows02]

Base jumping, skydiving, any of those crazy thrill seekers that drop in at the literal peak of a mountain and ski/snowboard/bike all the way down. Also untethered rock climbing seems so fun but I value my life too much to try lol

Also, parcour on buildings higher than 3 stages

[connemara_crocodile]

Yeah just last week I watched Magnus doing free solo climbing with Alex Honnold. My hands were sweating just from watching 🤣

You do all the rest of that list?

[Anonymous]

Used to do some surfing in Donegal. It's been a while.

[connemara_crocodile]

Some nice waves in there. I used to go there or Sligo with a friend, but I got tired of driving all the way from Galway just to find that the waves weren't as good as predicted 🤣

My parents have a holiday home near a beach in the Dungloe are if you know it. Good memories. I think I'm a thousand miles from the ocean either direction where I live now. I've met people who have never seen the ocean, blows my mind.

[connemara_crocodile]

Yes of course! I spent a night near Dungloe! Yeah big countries blow my mind in that sense! But at least the US has a lot things to do. I could do with a bit more mountains in here lol

You ever climb Errigal?

[connemara_crocodile]

No, it's in my bucket list! Love hiking

[Opinion Owner]

Hope your fit. I realised how unfit I was when climbing it one morning with some friends only to be passed by a woman with a newborn baby. I was barely a quarter of the way up when I passed her on her way back down from the top breastfeeding. Legs were killing me all week after.

[connemara_crocodile]

I did a night in Carrantuohill on a stormy day, so I at least I have the resilience 😅 but yeah the story with the woman with a baby passing me by like if she was going to the supermarket is one very familiar to me. Must be the same woman that goes to every mountain 🤣

[MarialArts]

kyokushin karate? .

[NathanDavis]

I avoid them now, used to enjoy a few of them but now they bring me a bad feel

some of them not in this list

[Alexandrubaschet08]

Surfing i will like to try one day, but in Europe is imposible

[connemara_crocodile]

Ireland has amazing waves... Just a tad cold tho 🤣

[Alexandrubaschet08]

I try this summer for the first time in my life the wather in the English Chanel, is fucking cold like shit.
I prefer the Black Sea or Mediterania

[DizzyDesii]

I like to collect skateboards just for the artwork but surfing and snowboarding have always intrigued me. I love to watch others do it. I lack balance so neither would be a fit for me

[dustybiker]

All of the above. I’ve always been adventurous, trying new things that gets the pulse racing.

[connemara_crocodile]

All of them? Wow you must have some stories to tell! What's your favorite though?

[dustybiker]

Endurance riding was incredibly fun. Racing back country trails on horseback.

[dustybiker]

I started doing that with some mounted policeman friends when I was 13-16.

[Iron_Man]

Congratulations on being made a moderator after all this time

[dustybiker]

@Iron_Man Thank you, sir. 🙂

[Iron_Man]

You’re very welcome

[LiamJHayden]

Surfing and sky diving. More surfing because of where I live.

[connemara_crocodile]

I actually had skydiving as one of the options but gag puts a limit to the amount of options you can put

[slatyb]

I'm a fast downhill skier on the groomers but I don't ski the steep and deep.

[douride2]

Snowmobiling & if you think it's not extreme your doing it wrong.

[connemara_crocodile]

Anything can be extreme if you do it in a certain way. I could eat chicken wings in a way that you'd fear for my life

[douride2]

LMAO. Thanks for the morning laugh.

[exitseven]

I probably will never ride a surfboard again but I pick that.

[DizzyDesii]

Something bad happen while doing so?

[exitseven]

@DizzyDesii 1No I had a hip replacement and it is hard to get up off the ground.
