And they come to do extreme sports – sports that are exciting but also dangerous.
Do you love walking across suspension bridges, driving your car fast, or doing extreme sports?
Even though they can be very dangerous, some of these extreme sports like ski jumping, luging, and whitewater kayaking are regular events at the Olympic Games.
In this extreme sport, the climbers hold onto the rocks only with their hands and feet – they don’t use ropes.
One of these extreme sports is called free solo climbing.
Should extreme sports be included in international competitions like the Olympic Games?
Should people be free to participate in extreme sports despite the level of danger involved?
There are already many extreme sports, and probably many more to be invented.
This might explain why more and more people, especially men, are doing extreme sports in their free time.
