Question by Shannon B:

Why does coming so close to death appeal to a certain group of people than others?

I am treating riding roller coasters as a subculture for my Engl102 paper. In my last question, "What makes you fear or love roller coasters" someone answered,

"The thrill, adrenalin rush, coming so close to death at any second, trying something new"

Why is coming so close to death so thrilling? This could be the huge factor in why there is a huge split in the population why some people adore or hate roller coasters. Answer any way you like.

I think because some people get bored with everyday life and want something exciting. also i guess being close to death gives life a whole new taste, you feel that you are living.
