9. Heliskiing
This is unbelievable. In this deadly sports people actually pay loads of money (which is around $500) to get helicoptered to a virgin land untouched by any man before only to ski down the white slope. These skiers – obviously millionaires but that’s beside the point, spend hundreds of dollars to ski down a natural landscape unlike the manipulated terrains of a ski-resort. The natural environment most obviously involves greater risks and discomfort. Even the journey into the interior part of a mountainous area has often been life-threatening in past. In 1994 Frank Wells the former president of Disney had diedin a helicopter crash during a heli-skiing trip.
