Uncle Nasty
PS I've done a number of high adventure activities in my days, and have snatched life back from the jaws of death more than once. I understand the mentality.
I can understand wrestling death to the floor til he says uncle. But you don't have to meet him at the corner. I would try this if I was in my 60's. I bet it would be exciting.

This is just nature's way of weeding out the stupid genes from the pool......
But if he lives, that makes his genes Super Awesome Genes. Funny how it works that way.
As for me, I'd totally do this! I'm sort of surprised nobody else thinks it looks fun.
Betcha he could patent them!
