What could be more fun than jumping off a high platform attached to only a vine? The inspiration for bungee jumping, this strange and dangerous pastime comes from Vanuatu in the South Pacific. Some people get a rush from risking their lives in sport--and readers will, too, just learning about them! Full-color photographs of risky hobbies, rituals, and competitions from around the world augment the real stories about them included in the main content, fact boxes, and sidebars. From extreme caving to walking on hot coals, these wacky sports are sure to fascinate readers, fearless or not.
