Extreme sports

¿where do extreme sports come from?

Extreme sports (also called action sport and adventure sport) is a media term for certain activities perceived as having a high level of inherent danger. These activities often involve speed, height, high level of physical exertion, highly specialized gear or spectacular stunts

The origin of the divergence of the term "extreme sports" from "sports" may date to the 1950s in the appearance of a phrase usually, but wrongly, attributed to Ernest Hemingway. The phrase is
"There are only three sports: bullfighting, motor racing, and mountaineering; all the rest are merely games."
The implication of the phrase was that the word "sport" defined an activity in which one might be killed. The other activities being termed "games". The phrase may have been invented by either writer Barnaby Conrad or automotive author Ken Purdy.
In recent decades the term extreme sport was further promoted by X Games, a multi-sport event created and developed by ESPN.The first X Games (known as 1995 Extreme Games) were held in Newport, Providence, Mount Snow, and Vermont in the United States.
The first authoritative history of the sports was published in 2004. Amped: How Big Air, Big Dollars and a New Generation Took Sports to the Extreme was written by journalist David Browne and published by Bloomsbury. The book provided an overview of the history, culture, and business of the sports and included interviews with athletes, company owners, and marketers.

¿Have you ever practiced these sports?

Just one for climbing when I was sixteen and it was really hard since that I didn't even know how to practice it and I wasn't strong enough because I had to use my arms, hands and legs to get to the top..

Which one would you like to practice any?

I'd like to practice wingsuit flying but I guess it'd be really expensive and at the same time dangerous, but I'll do it if I have the oportunity because the feeling of being in the sky and the experience must be incredible.

Personal Opinion

I personally believe I would't try any of them because I think you can put in risk your life but at the same time I don't think isa bad idea for those who practice these sports so this means they're are really strong and I don't think it'd be a bad experience to do. This is just about how you feel about yourself and your fears.

I think the 2 things are important, because the food must have good taste, good look and must smell good without a good restaurant this would not be possible.

A good restaurant is a clean place with good service, not necessarily be super luxurious.

my favorite food is spaghetti with tuna.

Some people live for the fortune

some people live just for the fame

Some people live for the power yeah

Some people live just to play the game

Some people think that the physical things define what's within And I've been there before But that life's a bore So full of the superficial

The vanity is the excessive confidence and belief of the own capacity and attraction very over other people and things.I think that the vanity until a point is good because you can be felt well, but when it's an excess it's really annoying.Also i think that the women are very vain, because we like to be neat, to have pretty clothes and to be in fashion, but the men too, because they like to be really nice.

fAsHiOn:
opinions of the people:
*Many people do not care about fashion and only see it as a senseless waste of paper in the magazines. It is true that fashion industry has become very powerful over the years.
*Fashion is an expression of individuals, special groups and cultures. Fashion is important as a means of interpreting social attitudes and values in a particular period of time.
*As civilized human beings, clothing is a requirement in order to be decent and presentable to the public. So unless you are a nudist, you may have difficulty deciding what to wear in the morning and discovering your own personal style.
**My opinion: well, I think the fashion is very important for the world because is a kind of expression to feel good.but, sometimes i think we shouldn't depend of that, we don't like being consumers.
