what's the extreme things that you've already done or that you wanted to do?.. there's this sport that I wanted to do,but I don't know what it is.LOL.I mean, I don't know the name of this sport. where in, the person will jump out of the airplane (but with parachute of course.LOL).. I really wanted to try this, though this is really scary.. but I wanted to feel the feeling of the birds where they are free to fly. I wanted to feel the wind that will go against me.. I fear heights,but I don't know,I really wanted to try that sometimes.(if already have enough courage to do that.LOL).. how about you?what is the extreme things that already do or that you wanted to do..share to us.. thanks in advance!

zip line & bungee jumping - extreme experiences
i love extreme experiences, i'm the kind of person who wants to try something new. the extreme things that i wanted to do are bungee jumping which you will stand on the top of a building or a mountain then you have a rope on your feet then you will jump off lol, i think zip line is really cool just take a look at the picture. zip line featured in trip na trip & sports unlimited, in fact we have zip line in davao & in subic, the zip line in davao is the longest trail in asia, & the owner says that they're trying to extend it so that davao would be the longest trail of zip line in the whole world! hehehe.. that's why i'm looking forward to get there soon! & another thing that i want to experience but not that extreme is to ride in a sports car & do drifting or racing lol

I also wanted to try bungee jumping, but I am afraid that the rope might loosen it's knot. I will going to die if that happens.

well, I think you're right. I will just think "OK it's safe, you wouldn't fall or die, it will just hurt a little if you fall. a little scratch in your head."LOL.

Yeah I often imagine of getting into extreme sports however I feel that it just stops there. I mean, I still believe that no extreme sport is worth dying for. I couldn't even ride the roller coaster even if it was to save my life. Anyway, If I had the courage I'd like to try bun-gee jumping, cliff diving, parasailing, sky diving , and a whole lot more. Would you know if sky diving is a bit expensive? How much is it? Has there anyone here in mylot experience sky diving? Can you tell us all about your experience. I feel like I am most likely to panic in that situation. I just hope that I have the presence of mind in terms of pulling my chutes while sky diving. I mean I doubt if I even stay awake I might faint! LOL

LOL.you made me laugh.as in! anyway, really?so you'll pay for that "sky diving" thing, knowing that you'll might die in it.haha!. and yes you are right, if you might forget to open up your parachute and end up falling in to the ground. I also wanted to try bun-gee jumping..but i think its too dangerous. my knot might slip and there's a possibility for me to fall on the ground.(I might die!)..(not unlike skydiving.you have your parachute.but we shouldn't forget to open it.LOL) me too, I'm so scared riding into a roller coaster..I remember when I was a kid, I really cried so hard and scream while riding into that freakin roller coaster!people laugh at me and teasing me.."why the heck did you ride in here?!?!"..LOL.well, I thought it was fun..but it scares me alot.it end up hurting my legs.. -thanks for responding!

I have ALWAYS wanted to get my sky diving licence also! I did a tandem jump many years ago and was really eager to go and do the course they provided and earn my certificate so I could jump on my own. It was a fantastic feeling to be falling through the air and I definitely wanted more of it! Of course life then took over and this just didn't end up happening. Maybe one day I will go back and do this as originally planned. I hope so!

Extreme things.................well ive always wanted to try sky diving or doing paradrops from planes but I never had the time to pursue such extremes lolz..............Although when I was young, I always wanted to summit high peaks and the only real opportunity I had in doing this was when I was invited to several mountain climbing expeditions, including the one with the Korean Friendship Association where I will summit Mount Baekdu, the highest peak in Korea (9600 ft)

I prefer mostly outdoor sports, especially those which are related to water sports. Like rafting, kayaking, wind and para-surfing. I also like sky diving, I believe that's what you're talking about.. Rock and boulder climbing are also one of my extreme dream sports, I like to test my upper body strength and check out how far I could go.

Well, during my college days I had done so many scary things in my life for adventure like mountain climbing, rappelling in the waterfalls, and most of all going in a very strange Islands that no people living there... All of those adventures are really fun but then I experienced different things that lead my life to danger.. Actually, my parents don't have any idea that I experienced this kind of adventure because every time I asked permission to have an overnight with my friends or just go out for whole day, I don't tell them the truth cause I know that they will not allowed me to go since I have a heart problem and asthma.. But I am a hard headed daughter I always disobey them just to have an incredible experiences.. Oh well, in the mountain climbing nothing really scary only many leeches surrounded in the trees and waters..Actually, many of the participants in the mountain climbing (since I'm one of the facilitator) were beaten by leeches, I'm also one of them.. But it is not the most exciting part that I had experienced.. Well, it was when I went home injured because I slide when I went down from the slippery soil (this happen when we are climbing down to go home)... Actually, I just have a minor spring arm on the right arm.. Oh well, a whole day of sermons I received from my father and most of all from my mother.. Rappelling in the waterfalls was the most great experienced.. Actually, we don't have a plan to have a rappelling in the waterfalls, our plan was just to take a bath in the waterfalls.. But since our guide doesn't know that place really well so we lost in the middle of the forest.. We only have one rope and we are not prepared to have a rappelling but since we don't have choice we just keep on walking for 2 hours until we saw an old lady and we asked her how to get in the waterfalls.. So, she told us the way but we are not expecting that we need to climb from the trees so that we can go to the other way.. And then we just noticed that we are at the top of the waterfalls..Then our friends are already eating and some are taking bath already.. They were just shocked to see us at the top of the waterfalls.. Oh well, no choice but to climb down from the side of the falls.. It was very scary because the rock are very slippery then also the water was very cold.. Thank God we didn't fall down.. Well, same in the mountain climbing I went home injured again.. I have so many scratched in my legs and arms.. Then the most painful was my head since one of the big rock at the top of tree when we were climbing in the trees fell down in my head.. Of course, i didn't tell my parents about what happened cause I know that they will really get mad at me.. The most fun adventure I experienced was going to an Island that no body is living there.. I was really a beautiful Island, it has a white sand and blue and green sea.. Actually, it has 11 Island but we just went to 3 Islands because some of our companion are already scared to go there.. We just ride a small boat (here in the Philippines we call it "bangka").. We just paid some amount of money to the fisherman to bring us in that Island.. Well, it was really scary riding in a small boat especially I don't know how to swim.. In the morning, the weather was really great.. We really appreciate so much all the beautiful views that we've seen.. But we don't know that some of our friends fell from the boat at the middle of sea.. Thank God, all of them knows how to swim.. But their gadget like cellphone and cameras had gone... But its ok what is more important their safe.. We spend from one Island to the other Island for one and half hours then changed to other Island.. When we were already going home, the sea isn't good anymore.. As if the sea was very mad of us.. There are big waves pushing us back to the Island.. I was really scared because I don't know how to swim... But since the fisherman who was driving the boat was really expert.. He knows how to fight to the big waves.. We arrived on the other Island where thats our way back home for 1hour.. We are fighting in the sea for almost one hour.. I arrived home late in the evening.. I though I will received a lot of sermons but my parents were not at home.. After I take a bath, thats the time they arrived.. But they asked me what happened to me because I become dark.. These are the extreme experienced that I had experienced in my college days..

Our Island Adventure - This are some of the 11 Island in the Philippines found in the Zamboanga City..
Actually, there's no name of those Islands.. They just called it 11 Islands because it has 11 Island separately.. It is located in my provinces which is Zamboanga City in the Philippines.. According to the fisherman living to the nearest 11 Island, they said that all those 11 Islands are very dangerous because more terrorist are staying there to hide or use it as an hide out then also they told us that there are already owner of each Islands and it owns my Muslim people.. Well, as we know no body can own an Island unless the sell those Islands.. Well, we can't say whether the fisherman was telling us the truth or they just want to scared us.. But no matter what they said we still visit and had fun taking a bath in those Islands.. By the way, the one below was one of the pictures I take in that Island..

Last year after 25 years of marriage both my husband and myself went off on a real holiday we needed in years.We did all the crazy things we could do.We went para sailing.I don't know how I did it.It was so thrilling I went for a second trip.I went on the roller coaster, it was scary I kept screaming still it was thrilling.Then we went scuba diving it was a little suffocating with the mask on but the experience was wonderful.I could see the underwater life close even touch them.These are all crazy things but it was very adventurous and good fun.

I've tried reef walking. and yeah, it was kinda difficult, because we really can't breath at first, but the experience was so wonderful. I hope that my future husband and I get to experience all of that.
