Adrenaline Rush

I am fascinated by the people who develop passions for sports/hobbies that involve a real element of danger. These are two of my potential ideas for the final project:

Idea 1: Longboarding. I plan to cover the history behind and evolution of the hobby, address the relationship between skateboarding and longboarding, and examine the boarding culture/lifestyle. However, I am most interested in covering the adrenaline rush that is downhill longboarding. The talent, control and passion it takes to execute downhill longboarding without severely injuring yourself in the process amazes me. Check it out:

Idea 2: Cave Diving. Spelunking was on my list of favorite words a couple weeks back and I am just intrigued by the hobby behind the word. I've always wanted to challenge myself and go on a cave exploration. Crawling through tiny pathways to end up in massive, underground openings sounds equal parts scary and amazing.
