Are you a thrill seeker?

After watching I'm A Celebrity... last night and poor Sheree Murphy doing that parachute jump! It made me realise I could NEVER ever do something like that.

Just watching the sheer height of 12000ft from the plane, I think if I was up there I'd probably have a heart attack before I could leap out the plane 8O :lol:

I'm the same with bunjee jumping and most thrill seeking sports - I just couldn't physically bring myself to do it 8O

Would you?
 
yeah definitely!!! I'd love to do a sky dive or a bungee jump, but just not had the opportunity to do one yet.

a bit scared about bungee jumping cos someone told me you can rip your eye nerves when you get to the bottom of the rope and go blind, but I have a feeling it was a load of bollocks....!
 
Never, I couldn't do anything like that. I also couldn't watch someone I know do it either - I would just be a bag of nerves :roll:

I was a nervous wreck when we went to the stadium in Cardiff to watch the football because it was so high up and very steep.

I thought Shree was so brave last night and I was really chuffed for her that she did it :)

I know she was really brave, I really admire her for just gritting her teeth and doing it! You could tell how nervous she was though, her lips went practically blue and she couldnt stop shaking 8O That's what I'd be like if I was up there 8O :(

It must be such an adrenaline rush once you've actually done it though. Knowing my luck the parachute probably wouldn't open :roll:
 
As I was watching last night I was thinking that if I was her I would do it and I was really willing her to do so.

But in the cold light of day I probably wouldn't even get up in the plane in the first place just in case they forced me to go ahead with the jump :lol:

Why did she go on the show then if she's such a bag of nerves? Same with that mess who used to be on Eastenders. What were they expecting? Just to sit there and paint their nails and be handed a fat pay-cheque at the end of it all for doing nothing? Fairly pathetic.

In answer to your question, yes, I probably would do it as it seems like an amazing experience and especially as you'd be with a trained professional jumper. No doubt I'd be nervous but as shown when Sid Owen jumped, that would quickly change to sheer euphoria . Great views too!
 
I know what you mean, I would never volunteer to go on that show. I hate heights, creepy crawlies, etc, I need my sleep, I am a very fussy eater and I'm allergic to mosquito bites!

So aoll in all I'd be a pretty useless camper tbh 8O

Ha ha - she did look dreadful didn't she? Isn't she supposed to be a violent drunk 8O I'm not keen on her and would be happy not to see her back in the jungle.

I thought Ant and Dec were really funny when they were taking the p*ss out of David and Sid :lol: :lol:

Gosh, I'm hooked on this already and it's only been on for one night :lol:
 
I have a wife and baby to think of so if anything went wrong I'd leave a widow, and boy without a father.


That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it..... my lack of nerve is not the issue ;) :oops:
 
yes most definitely! I get bored easily and love things that are fast and high.. still haven't gone skydiving or bungee yet.. but I love roller coasters and all that sort:)
 
ive done a bungee jump and a parachute jump from 14, 000 feet and they were both awesome, the craziest thing ive ever done. i want to spend a summer working abroad now and i'll be as happy is a pig in **** if manage it.

I recommend u all get your parachutes on and get jumpin out of planes.

Danger is my middle name! I'd quite like to add to the bungee jump I did of a rickety crane in Turkey some day, though perhaps in more controlled, safety- aware conditions. And perhaps not going commando, in cream linen trousers after two days of the squits from alcohol poisioning. How I managed to clench until the nearest bar afterwards I'll never know.

Yup, I'll remember my 21st b'day for ever!
 
I feel a message coming through from the 'other side'

Robder says he's a thrill seeker

but I just think he looks too scared to ever want to do it again :lol:
 
I remember him posting that before!! Looks like he needs clean pants :lol: I don't feel a very strong connection with the other side today, I don't think i'm relaxed enough :lol:
