From your list, open water sailing. Because things can go south pretty easy and fast, and your chances of survival in those waters are minimal if you don't get rescued by a third party.

>high altitude climbing
Dangerous because the altitude can just you up, but not that dangerous, since these expeditions are planned well in advance and even the shitty weather can be more or less be part of the equation. I'm thinking about the Everest or the Aconcagua.

Yeah no, it's pretty fucking dangerous and experienced people die a lot. Rock climbing is way safer.

>>720667
It's safer than a lot of people give it credit for. Cave diving earned it's reputation 20 years ago when there was a heavy culture of "build your own kit". Today, people still build their own kit, but for non-safety critical equipment.

Good linelaying has largely prevented people from getting lost, and the transfer of knowledge in the community seems really good.

Most cave divers I know have a good story or two about near death experiences, but very few know somebody who was killed or injured personally.

The reason it seems dangerous as fuck is that its a really small community, working with a tiny margin for error. If you work outside that margin, you're dead, inside it and you're fine. There's no in-between. The fact that there are so few cave divers massively skews any statistics you put together.

>By March 2012, there had been 191 summit ascents of Annapurna I Main, and 61 climbing fatalities on the mountain.[5] This fatality-to-summit ratio (32%) is the highest of any of the eight-thousanders. In particular, the ascent via the south face is considered, by some, the most difficult of all climbs. In October 2014, at least 39 people were killed as a result of snowstorms and avalanches on and around Annapurna, in Nepal's worst ever trekking disaster.[6]

That's just the danger of technical diving off of trimix while surrounded by ropes that you can get tangled in.

Note, really deep sea diving requires all sorts of special gas blends and opens you up to death by narcosis really easily.

> All these posters who think that cave diving isn't dangerous.

Essentially cave diving is a multifaceted discipline, bringing in the principles of technical diving, deep diving, night diving, wreck diving (overhead environments) just to name a few, and many of these disciplines require correct execution and technique, especially with the additional task loading it demands.

As a consequence, cave diving is an activity with very short error chain(s) and isn't very forgiving with mistakes or sloppy technique, and usually fatal if you cut corners.

Going into exploratory cave diving will magnify the risks. Heading into uncharted territory, you don't know how far or how deep that cave goes, and how your dive plan, gas management and dive profile will allow you to explore, for how long and how deep.

You've got to factor things like the use of Gas Blends and the maximum operating depth of those blends. Your decompression mixes, their operating depths and you've got to apply rule of thirds to your gas supply and whether you are going to stage your gas supply, all of these have to be factored into your dive tables and dive plans, and its a different kettle of fish for rebreathers.

Then mix in the variation in human physiology. Not to mention the dive profiles of your buddies like their Surface Air Consumption Rates (SAC rates) which you have to factor into your plan, along with their competence.

And then there is your equipment, and maintaining incredible discipline with their maintenance and performing tasks like setting line, and buoyancy control.

You also have to factor in environmental conditions, People talk about silt out, who haven't truly experienced it before, think its just just a minor inconvenience, or even cave ins like 1988 Nullarbor Incident.

Cont.

In short, like most extreme activities, you treat it with respect.
Being naive and complacent is likely to guarantee a death sentence.

Not denying that his progression and the feat he performed took some serious balls, ultimately he perished.

The diver he was retrieving was a support diver who blacked out at 60m IIRC, he wasn't a record holder or attempting anything of the sort.

LOL, from a guy who was a writer for a living. Like he knew his shit.

I can say from my experience that logging is the most dangerous /out/ activity. Yes it is not a recreational activity but it is still done /out/.

I have worked crab boats, which I would rank as next dangerous. Cod and to a lesser extent king salmon are dangerous but the weather isn't quite as crazy.

All of the above have resulted in my having more close calls and seeing more friends maimed or killed than mountain hiking, bear hunting, skiing, shitting in geocaches, and surfing huge waves.

I might would entertain the idea that caving is more dangerous, but that is mostly because no fucking way I am squeezing into an ink black passage only a centimeter larger than my body, a hundred feet below the surface.

You have to be squidding me. That shit is pretty much just recreational fishing with the sport and the fun taken out and is about as safe as commercial fishing gets; apart from the usual falling/stabbing/crushing/drowning/etc. hazards that exist even in fucking fish processing plants shoreside, the only thing even remotely hazardous about fishing for Kings is running the gear and if that kills you then whoever made that gurney did the gene pool a solid.

I don't think Sailing is a real danger. Men have crossed oceans in much smaller boats than 30 ft sailboats. Employing a jordan drogue with a storm jib and stay sail can get you through just about anything short of sailing into a hurricane.

A boats top speed is limited to its water line length. A 30 foot sailboat like in the pic can travel the same distance a massive sailing yacht can, only but a week slower if crossing oceans. Shorter drafts make shallows more navigable.

One of my boss's friends used to hunt wild boars with knives. He'd hide up in a tree with bait below him and wait for them to show up, then he'd jump down and stick em in the throat. He ended up getting gored by one after he landed wrong and broke his ankle on the jump.

This isn't necessarily that dangerous anymore with AIS collision avoidance becoming more common. I've cruised throughout latin america and you can just sleep as long as you have an AIS alarm, Channel 16 cranked up, and get up every half hour to 45 minutes to look around.
