Some people say, “Extreme(极限的) sports are so dangerous. Why would some people like to do them?” But the danger is what makes them so exciting.
Bungee jumping(蹦极): People on some South Pacific islands have been bungee jumping for hundreds of years. In 1979, some people bungee jumped off a bridge in England and made the sport popular around the world. Bungee jumping came to China in 1996.
Skydiving(跳伞): This is probably the scariest extreme sport. Skydivers jump out of airplanes about four kilometres up in the sky. They are usually in free-fall for a while and then open a parachute(降落伞) to slow down for a safe landing.
Snowboarding(单板滑雪): This became a Winter Olympic sport in 1998. People tied their feet to the board with special shoes. They don’t use any ski sticks. Then they ride down hills, jump high and do tricks.
