This review is from: Adventure Sports in Florida (Paperback)
Bruce Hunt has done a very thorough job of researching and compiling some very interesting high adventure activities.
Chapters include: Drag Racing, Ultra-Lights, Aerial Fighter Combat (my favorite), Hang Gliding, Sports Car Racing, Stock Car Racing, Kart Racing, Skydiving, Hot Air Ballooning, Soaring, Sea Kayaking, Bungee Jumping, Sky Coastering, Cave Diving, and more.
Bruce has done them all and furnishes complete names and addresses of expert teachers in each field.
I am somewhat of an adrenaline junkie myself, having amassed over 7000 skydives, but I am afraid my endeavors pale by comparison to Bruce. I have met Bruce while skydiving and can attest to his great skill, intelligence, and insatiable quest for adventure.
I especially like the first-person tone of Bruce's writing. He lives a very exciting life and shares his experiences with great skill. The book reads like a conversation with an old friend.
If you are looking for some great ideas for experiencing the more thrilling endeavors in life, this is the book for you.
