A little adventure never killed anyone. Or maybe it did! But that’s when people are not careful. Mostly, people survive. Now, if that little statement itself made you feel like totally energised and pumped up, then I can assure you without fail that adventure sports will be nothing less than a treat for you. What gives people the motivation to take up adventure sports is the thrill and adrenaline rush that they get out it. It’s enthusiasm that cannot be explained in mere words.
Read ahead now to find out about the top adventure sports that are must be in your bucket list, come what may.
1) Sky Diving:
This definitely has to be number one in your bucket list. Basically, sky diving is very easy. All you need to do is jump off a helicopter. Ok, I admit that it does sound scary to leap into thin air with nothing to hold onto. But once you do it, it is a feeling that cannot be matched or compared to any other thing. You can go with an expert, if you are a novice. In case you have prior training, you can opt for going solo. Just remember to be harnessed well and pray that your parachute opens on time. Remember: the sky needs to be clear for this.
2) Bungee Jumping:
Oh, trust me when I say this, this is thrilling. This too involves you jumping off a point. But, it’s way lower than that in sky diving. You will be harnessed and tied with a rope. This helps you to be sure that you will not fly off and hit your head anywhere. Now, you can opt for bungee jumping over water or land. In case you choose it over water, you can choose to either get totally submerged while you jump, or you can choose to just touch the tip of the surface and come back up. Please note that if you wish to do bungee jumping at New Zealand, you need to be at least 45 kgs.
3) Scuba diving:
Please note that you do not need to compulsorily know swimming if you wish to go for scuba diving. There are experts to accompany you and the depth chosen for you is picked accordingly. It is the most peaceful and soothing experience to be underwater and experience the life of aquatic beings. The colourful images are bound to last in your memory for a lifetime.
You must know that adventure sports are great to aid you in getting over your fears. They are challenges that you must conquer in order to emerge victorious. We all have our own set of fears and insecurities. But, life is all about getting over our obstructions and winning and excelling. All you need to do is live by the motto of YOLO (You Only Live Once) and just let it all go. Let nothing stop you. You must have your bucket list of wishes or things to do before you die.
