Risk Takers

Sir Nicky Talent · 07-01-2009, 11:40 AM

When it comes to living your life, there seems to be two types of people. There are the worry-warts on one hand and the risk takers on the other.

I present this thread by asking which one are you? If you like to take risks, what is it that you usually take risks with? Do you like doing something extreme like bungee jumping or sky diving? Do you fight or wrestle? Or you just take personal risks in life?

And for the worry-warts, what makes you so pessimistic? Do you have phobias? Ever wanted to try anything.

For me, I love doing stuff like tranny skating (that isn't skating a she-male, that is skating invert, bowls, snake runs, etc.), as well as doing amatuer kickboxing and wrestling. I've always wanted to fly planes, but I have a phobia of heights.

I don't mind the gap when alighting from the train despite clear instructions to do so. I'm a maverick.

Suprised your risk wasn't "unprotected sex"

*Waits for Troy*

But good post Paul. I would have never though of that.

I wouldn't say that I live for the extreme, but I wouldn't say that I worry about everything. There are some extreme things that I would do in a heartbeat (Skydiving, bungee jumping, ect.) But I do tend to think "Okay, if I do go to Georgia for the week, what if something happens to my parents? What about Kyle's game, he could get hurt and I wouldn't be there."

I like to think of myself as a risk-taker. I have that 'Do it or you'll regret it' attitude. I dont want to restrict myself and just feel like i'm living in a box, if there's something I want to do, and it could turn out either good or bad, i'll do it. Everyones heard the saying 'Never say can't', right? Well, how do you know you 'cant' do it unless you try? A successful person does not make it by staying in their comfort zone, you wont get far because you'll only going to get out of life what you put in.

Like I use to live in England, but I moved to Canada, and eventually I plan on moving to the US, by myself. I moved to Canada to live with some other relatives because I want to persue a career in Professional Wrestling (k you can laugh lol), and the closer i get to my goal, the better. I personally find moving to America on my own and not knowing anybody there, spending thousands of dollars on something that might even happen, a risk, not sure about anybody else.

And I'm sure that just really personal stuff, like I said just flying or being in a shady location, scares people more than extreme stuff.

Why would I laugh? I'm someone who does Kickboxing who would rather be a referee. Something like you want to do takes guts.

Most people i've met in RL, seem to laugh if i've ever let it slip that i wanted to do what I wanna do. Even my parents didn't take me seriously, but eventually I convinced them. But yeah, like this one girl from my old school before I moved found out and she laughed, then again she's one of those people who thinks wrestling sucks and everything, it wasn't that popular in my HS.

I have unprotected sex with strippers and hookers. Well I used to. Happy Nicky? lol

I like to skydive and bungee jump but haven't for a long time. Now everything is a worry about money, so I am a worry wart there.

lol crazy white boys. I dont sky dive or shit like that, hell I dont even skate...anymore. Many of my pranks get me in trouble with the law. Thus from that sense I suppose I'm a risk taker. Financially, I like to play the stock market, and I'm about 7k away from owning a Tim Hortons. I suppose I take some risks from that sense as well, though they are calculated risks. I also have protected sex. I'm a mix of minority races, my life span is already short because of this.

I think that's what did skateboarding from me. Just constant hassle and being banned from places. I got banned from a college campus for skateboard once. I can never go to East Carolina University. That's why I usually stick to snakeway and ramps and pools.
