love the rush that high risk activities give them. If they're poor, they drive too fast to amusement parks to ride the nastiest roller coasters they can find. If they're wealthy, they climb Everest.

As long as the high risk activity is channeled into something reasonably benign, it's no problem. If it's channeled into gang wars in my neighborhood, big problem.

It's just another normal variation of the human personality. I don't share it, either, although I did tend to get bored outside critical care units so maybe I'm just kidding myself.

Then again, I've never enjoyed roller coasters.
