    Some of these should have been honorable mentions compared to some of the honorable mentions. This comes from somebody that wouldn’t try any of these though.

    For everyone asking „Where’s parkour??“ or „Where’s free running??“, PARKOUR AND FREE RUNNING AREN’T EXTREME SPORTS. You’re not supposed to leap over buildings and climb up random skyscrapers! Free Running is a form of self expression. Neither is an extweme spoat.

    Have you guys ever seen speedball?!?!?! I highly recommend putting this extreme sport in another video. Speedball is a faster, more technical, and a lot more adrenaline pumping version of paintball. If you have not seen speedball, look up professional paintball. This sport definitely fits in well with the other sports you have mentioned in this video.

    I do not agree with this list!!!!!!!! This is because snowboarding,skiing, and snowmobiling are VERY extreme sports. You people over at watch mojo where you make these videos I would love to see you freestyle snowboard,freestyle ski, and ride a snowmobile. You guys are complete idiots. For making the snow sports honourable mention.

    „Are you an aid climber or a free climber?“

    I’m a little of both, but just as a hobby and not as a passion. I like to free climb a bit up in the mountains, but I also enjoy climbing rock walls.

    FYI – Free climbing means no aid tools, but usually means they still have a rope and belayer. Free Soloing means the climber is all alone – no belayer, no rope.

    Free-soloing was number two, not free climbing. Free climbing is normal roped and unaided climbing. Free-soloing is un-roped and unaided.

    what about jumping out a helicopter and wingsuiting onto a hill and then climb up it and jump off with a skateboard and land onto a bike and then drive it off the hill then land inside a pair of ice skates and ride to the finish line with a jump and land in a boat and go off a cliff and wingsuit back to the helicopter???

      pisses me off when people call „free solo“ „free climbing.“ i free climb and it’s not really that dangerous cause i use gear to protect me like ropes. Free Solo is without ropes.

    Freerunning is actually harder than all if these, since it takes primary concepts from all, including balance, agility, and recklessness. Also it’s much cooler looking.

    Too bad you guys don’t know what Free Climbing is. You’re referring to Free Solo. Free Climbing is only using your hands and feet to progress which is typical rock climbing which ropes are still used for protection. Free Solo is climbing without protection. If you’re going to report it why don’t you get your terms right.

    Skylining, skating downhill and Vulcano surfing? Are you serious? The first is just a side-note to climbing. The second would be extreme down a glacier but in a controlled environment and with protections I don’t see it as extreme. Vulcano surfing is just snowboarding on sand and small rocks down a slope, which is safer than actual freeriding.
    I’d substitute with downhill/freeride/trials mountain biking, para/hang gliding and kite surfing.

    You’re compleatly mistaken with the climbing terms. Freeclimbling means climbing without using anything but the rock to hold/stand on. But you can use a rope and so called quickdraws to prevent a fall to the ground. What you showed is Free Soloing, where you climb without any protection. And the same story with the Highlines. You can (and you actually showed some footage) use a rope to protect you from falling to death although a few (actually realy realy few) Highliners do it without the rope.

    Free climbing is absolutely nuts. My hat’s off to the guys and gals who do it, and good luck to you. It gives me anxiety just watching it. I’m not afraid of heights either (I’ve been skydiving and had a lot of fun doing it considering it was my first time in an airplane) it’s just the endurance required for free climbing is insane. There is not quitting half way. What if you get a cramp! Or what if you get sleepy and fancy a nap?
