The Power of Exploration
There's something about living a life where you know my friends and I could die at any time and that was very real for me. Our nervous systems are actually much more prepared to experience it than we think that we are. Some people would say that someone attracted to bass jumping has a death wish but there might also just be something innate in us that really feels unresolved around death which knows that bringing ourselves closer to it will bring us into contact with what is unresolved so that we can do that work. The idea the idea of combining a sport like this with an exploration of your own mortality every time you do one of these jumps is incredibly powerful, he says.
