Just for the record: I wouldn't tell you that. I'm as much an adrenaline junkie as anyone, and I've done some damned risky things during my life.

Thing is, there's a difference between consciously risking your own life and risking the lives of others around you who haven't consciously made that same choice. That's the difference here. I've seen people die, in person, because of the latter. That's why this is stupid -- and part of the reason it's illegal.
