Many people now undertake extreme activities. Why do people risk their lives in this way and do you think it's a good trend?
An activity becomes extreme when the probability of getting hurt or seriously injured is considerably high. There is a segment of society who wanted to be called daredevils and are not afraid of dying or sustaining injuries.
This
essay will illustrate with examples why I believe that this
is a dangerous trend, and should be discouraged at all levels.
The first
key reason, for people
participating in extreme activities, is to overcome fear and feel thrilled. This
is because, every time they perform such
activity they put their lives at stake, and this
makes them feel supernatural about them. For example
, people
from around the world travel to Norway for base jumping. Where the jumpers wear a jumpsuit and make a free fall from high mountains without a parachute. A number of people
have lost their lives hitting the cliffs while base jumping. The Norwegian Government has declared the activity illegal but few people
still choose to do it, which is a big concern for the government, and they are cracking down against such
individuals.
In addition
, there are those who do it to a
show power and strength. There is fame and money involved for the performers. Remove the article

This
fame and a large amount of prize money thrive them to put their lives at stake. For instance
, in illegal cage fights, where two people
are put into a cage, the referees are not professionally trained or registered. More often than not, these fights end up with players getting injured or disabled. This
is why no country has officially recognized them.
In conclusion, I sincerely feel, extreme activities which pose a serious threat to the body should be banned, and a strong political will is required to curtail them.Submitted by sal.salmansaleem on
