Paragliding is quite a popular adventure sport around the world now. It a great chance for those who wants to enjoy a wonderful nature view while floating in the air. To go on a paraglide, you will have to set off from a high ground and from there, you can just leave everything to the instructor as he is the one who will be controlling the parachute. So please rest assure and enjoy your free fly alongside a professional paraglider.

Base jumping is another extreme sport that said to be more dangerous than skydiving because the time needed to open up the parachute is much shorter for base jumping. Instead of jumping off from high altitudes or sky, base jumper would jump from lower altitudes which is the buildings. So, it basically like suicide in an epic way. It may sound super exciting for adventure seeker but you may want to reconsider because your little heart may not be able to handle such extreme feelings.

P/s: Pray hard before you take off.
