One of the most bizarre and awesome contradictions of human evolution is that we continue to create and indulge in increasingly fatal ways to amuse ourselves. Our gene pool has seemingly neglected the repercussions of the lifestyle choices of adventure nuts. A lot of you, you know who you are, would voluntarily hike for miles to peek inside a bubbling volcano and deliberately pedal down a mountain route, explicitly named the ‘Death Road’. Adventure sports in India are no different and have only grown to new heights with time... literally!
If you wander our crazy, beautiful planet in search for your next daredevil do, then India may surprise you with its catalogue of destinations.
