The Popularity of Extreme Sport 

The popularity of extreme sports has continued to grow steadily over the last decades. A lot of people all over the world are extremely attracted to these relatively new sports because they have the possibility to express themselves in a new way and experience adrenaline rush.With the thrills come extreme risks, an extreme sport is any sport featuring high speed, height, danger, or spectacular movements. Extreme sports are more popular among young people; we could say that the spectacular stunts used in these wild sports attract mostly younger generation.

Most participants in these sports put their lives at risk, follow their idols steps. Psychologists realize that some people seem to have a strong craving for adrenaline rushes, where they get high off doing risky sports. The extreme sports enthusiasts tend to be individual rather than team sports, in which these sports can include competitive and non-competitive activates. There is a list of more than 40 sports that considered as an extreme; such as: skateboarding, mountain boarding, kiting, xpogo, parkour, bunjee jumping, surfing, and the list keeps going. As we all know everything new is very attractive to us and new kinds of sports are not exceptions. When massive media support of these activities was launched, in order to get kids off the couches, their popularity went through the roof.

People became involved in different activities such as skydiving, mountain biking, rock climbing, etc. People are fed up with basketball, soccer, football, martial arts, these sports became generic. It would not be an overestimation to say that almost everyone goes into one of these sports. It is in human beings nature to tend to stand out and extreme sports are good ways to do it. I am of the opinion that people think that your activities are linked directly to your personality: if you are boring, you do dull thing and controversially unusual activities mean great personality and positive outlook.

Once one of the greatest surfers said about passion to this dangerous sport: that it is his autograph to the world, in such a way he expresses himself.It is worth to notice that we live in the 21st century and we are absolutely limited in our activities to home works, jobs , and studying. Frankly speaking our life is boring. Everyday we see the same faces, the same walls, we sit on the same chairs, we do not spend enough time in the fresh air we just do not live active life.With know doubt such living provokes stresses, fatigue, and just do not assist us to get our peace of mind. Personally I spend half a day in my university, sitting at the lectures and to tell the truth now I’m like a suppressed spring that tends to straighten up. In other words I and many other people lacks adrenaline rush and dangerous sports gladly grant us a good portion of adrenaline.To put it into conclusion, against the background of stresses, boredom and daily routine people choose dangerous and extreme sports to have the possibility express themselves, and to shake their lives a little bit.

Each year, over half a billion people will become infected with malaria, with roughly 80% of them living in Sub-Saharan Africa. Nearly half a million people die of malaria every year, most of them young children under the age of five. Unlike many other infectious diseases, the death toll for malaria is rising. While there have been many programs designed to improve access to malaria treatment, the best way to reduce the impact of malaria in Sub-Saharan Africa is to focus on reducing the number of people who contract the disease in the first place, rather than waiting to treat the disease after the person is already infected. There are multiple drugs available to treat malaria, and many of them work well and save lives, but malaria eradication programs that focus too muc...

They also believe it will encourage more people to read because they won’t have to travel to a library to get a book; they can simply click on what they want to read and read it from wherever they are. They could also access more materials because libraries won’t have to buy physical copies of books; they can simply rent out as many digital copies as they need. However, it would be a serious mistake to replace libraries with table...
