I slalom ski. I wakeboard. I hike and rock climb.
The true man wants two things: danger and play. For that reason he wants woman, as the most dangerous plaything.
I don't do girlfriendy sort of things, like shopping or going to spas. Spas fill me with horror. Frankly, I'd be more interested in doing a walk through the sewers of London!
I've been arrested many times for illegal high wire walking and illegal street performing.
The danger sensation is exciting. The challenge is to find new dangers.
I prefer to be scared in a way that a 12-year-old would want to be.
I've never seen anything that I didn't want to jump off of.
I'm not, like, an action-hero guy.
I always knew about the risks I was taking. Every year, someone you knew was killed racing. You had to ask yourself, do you enjoy driving these cars so much that you're prepared to take that risk?
I have a very fun life. I don't recommend it for anybody else, but it sure has been fun for me.
I'd rather climb Everest than go for a walk in the park.
Games are all about taking risks.
Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming "Wow! What a Ride!
I love stories about two people who are doing illegal things, who we really enjoy watching despite the fact that we know they are doomed in some way.
What men don't want, in fact what anyone who's any sort of thrill-seeking, intelligent adult doesn't want, is some crushing bore describing their emotions in real time every waking hour.
Suppose I lay down on the pavement and you run over me a few times with my own car...just for old times.
The first time I went crowd surfing was heaven.
You'd have to get my money out of my cold dead hand before I gambled it away.
The idea of lying on a beach as my main thing just sounds like the worst. It sounds horrible to me. I would go bonkers. I would have to be on serious drugs. I'd be super-duper bored. I like high intensity.
Danger is to adventure what garlic is to spaghetti sauce. Without it, you just end up with stewed tomatoes.
The principal difference between an adventurer and a suicide is that the adventurer leaves himself a margin of escape (the narrower the margin the greater the adventure), a margin whose width and length may be determined by unknown factors but whose navigation is determined by the measure of the adventurer's nerve and wits. It is exhilarating to live by one's nerves or toward the summit of one's wits.
I do enjoy running down a ditch full of mud, firing bullets. It’s the way I am. I love it.
Why did I rob banks? Because I enjoyed it. I loved it. I was more alive when I was inside a bank, robbing it, than at any other time in my life. I enjoyed everything about it so much that one or two weeks later I'd be out looking for the next job. But to me the money was the chips, that's all.
Fact about me - I love jumping over/into things.
I don't want an uneventful and safe life, I prefer an adventurous one.
