Subject of study: people's opinions on this issue

Where did the word extreme come from?

Extra m (eng. extreme - the opposite, having a high degree, excessive, special) - outstanding, extraordinary actions, usually associated with a danger to life.

Recently, the number of fans of extreme sports is growing rapidly, as well as the extreme sports themselves. An extreme is a person who has an excellent physical shape and a desire to resist the natural forces of nature. As a rule, extreme people are very brave, fearless and gambling people. Extreme is ready to risk his health to get an additional dose of adrenaline in the blood.

From the history…

The first extreme sport appeared in Japan. Some modern sports that have been promoted in the world since the 1950s have gradually come to be called extreme. These sports include: trial, skateboarding, snowboarding, skydiving, rock climbing, caving, rope jumping, etc. Extreme sports are characterized by a high degree of danger to the life and health of the athlete, a large number of acrobatic stunts, a high level of adrenaline, which is released from the athlete during sports.

People who want to do extreme sports must be in good physical shape and in good spirits, that is, they must be psychologically prepared. In addition, the extreme must know the laws of nature and be able to resist them, and the extreme must have an excellent reaction, be ready to make quick decisions. Naturally, if necessary, extreme people must take risks, which in turn must be justified.

In itself, extreme sport is a certain line or line that is between life and death, on this edge there is an extreme sportsman who opposes the forces of nature.

Extreme sports help a person relieve mental stress, or vice versa - get a share of adrenaline. Every year, their new trends develop, as the army of fans is growing rapidly. Sports that seemed extreme 30 years ago are now perceived as ordinary. And feeling this, they do not stand still and are constantly improving. In our presentation, we will introduce you to some extreme sports. Why do people love extreme sports?

In order to understand why people love extreme sports, it is very important to understand what these sports are, why they are called extreme, and why they are divided by the level of enjoyment they receive.

In recent years, the term "extreme sports" has become very popular. They can be divided into three main types: air, land and water. People who have taken up extreme sports are likely to have become disillusioned with regular sports, or simply bored with traditional sports. A person who has started to engage in extreme sports wants to get thrills and discover something new. Despite their great popularity among young people, these sports are not used in schools. They are mostly practiced on an individual level, although in many cases it is possible to get the help of a professional trainer.

Extreme sports often become the subject of discussions based on the definition of what kind of sport can be called extreme. Despite their great popularity among young people, these sports are not used in schools. They are mostly practiced on an individual level, although in many cases it is possible to get the help of a professional trainer.

How are extreme sports different from regular sports?

We can say that this is a sport that differs from the usual, that is, it is associated with increased injuries or even a threat to life, and this is considered the norm for him. Of course, about almost any sport, you can say that it has both dangers and risks. But there they happen more by chance, which cannot be said about extreme sports, where an athlete, knowing in advance, takes risks. Unforeseen circumstances in such sports are what they go for consciously, and not from what they run away from, they prepare themselves in advance, starting with the most common things in school, gradually improving their skills and tricks, and ultimately doing something that does not lend itself to any descriptions.

What character traits and physical qualities developing extreme sports?

Do extreme sports affect a person’s character, because it seems that extreme sports should make a person’s physical body stronger, faster, more resilient and more flexible, but does sports do the same with our character. Here the opinions are divided: more than half believe that extreme sports affect the character of a person, including us.

We think that you will be interested to learn about rather rare extreme sports.

Parkour. The art of moving and overcoming obstacles in urban environments. Currently, it is actively practiced and developed in many countries of the world. The essence of parkour is movement and overcoming obstacles of various nature. Both existing architectural structures (railings, parapets, walls, etc.) and specially made structures can be considered as such.

Heli-ski. A kind of skiing, the essence of which is to descend on untouched snowy

slopes. The use of a helicopter for ascent allows you to find various options for descending from the mountains in the conditions of pristine nature, untouched by human invasion, where there is no other way to quickly climb.

Diving. This is swimming under water with devices that provide an autonomous supply of air (or other gas mixture) for breathing underwater from several minutes to 12 hours or more, depending on the depth, type of breathing apparatus and consumption of the gas mixture by the diver.

Surfing. Wave riding on special light boards. There are several similar sports that differ in the technical means used (for example, windsurfing - sailing on a board).

Skysurfing. Ski jumping to perform various figures in free fall. A relatively young type of parachuting. In a short time, it has received rapid development. The aerodynamics of a skier is very different from a simple free fall when skydiving. The vertical speed of the fall is approximately 230 km / h. Quite a dangerous sport. In free flight, unforeseen circumstances may arise. So that the ski does not interfere in emergency situations, there is a mechanism for uncoupling it.

Rock climbing. sport and active rest, which consists in climbing a rock or climbing wall. Originating as a kind of mountaineering, rock climbing is now an independent sport.

Underwater rugby . The Germans are the author of underwater entertainment. In this sport, players have to develop several skills in order to perform successfully. You need to be able to move quickly and maneuver underwater, to fight for the ball be strong and be able to hold your breath for a long time. You also need to get used to difficult tactics, which, in addition to the usual back and forth, left and right, also involves moving up and down.

Paragliding. Flying due to ascending air currents can elevate an athlete to an impressive height. The world record was 4526 meters above sea level. Slipping from such streams, you can go down in free fall, enjoying the amazing view from above. Paragliding could well become an excellent sport for singles, because it is here that a person can be left alone for a long time.

Polo on segways. In this game, players are divided into two teams and must score as many goals as possible with their hammers in the allotted time. The main pleasure of Segway polo is that the electric device cannot accelerate faster than 20 km / h, as a result it is impossible to outperform the competitor due to superior speed. In such a game, maneuverability comes to the fore, the ability to control your body and transport and perform semi-acrobatic tricks with a stick in your hands. At the same time, real players must have excellent vestibular apparatus.

Racing 24 Hours of Le Mans.This auto race is not only the most popular and prestigious endurance race on the planet, it is also the oldest. Start and finish are exactly one day apart, while the word survival for Le Mans is absolutely applicable here - the famous track has already become the site of the death of 21 racers. However, such extreme conditions do not scare off many who want to participate in the race for the past 90 years.

Florentine Football.When football starts to be played without rules, it only adds to its spectacle. The most ancient varieties of this game are exactly the same. Florentine football is full of adrenaline, sweat, tears and even blood. Some even believe that this is the most masculine game in the world, because against its background, both rugby and hockey look rather restrained and subject to the rules.

What extreme sports have been developed in Surgut?

There are many extreme sports in Surgut, but not all of them are actively developing. Here is a story about extreme sportsmen from Surgut.

On the banks of the Ob, a water run of Ugra hydrocyclists started. Thrill-seekers from Surgut, Nizhnevartovsk and Nefteyugansk went on a trip along the route Surgut - Trom-Egan - Russkinskaya. In total, about 40 people gathered for the Yugra voyage, but the state inspection for small boats missed by no means all of them.
The final preparations before a trip always take several hours. It is necessary to check the technical condition of the iron horse and wetsuit, the presence of life jackets, because they will swim away, extreme people from Surgut - 320 kilometers away, to the village of Russkinskaya. The group includes both beginners and experienced travelers.
During the run, extreme sportsmen from Nizhnevartovsk and Nefteyugansk will join the Surgut group. The journey will last approximately 3 days. Route: Surgut - Trom-Egan - Russkinskaya and back.
However, on the shore, three participants were removed from the start. The reason is the lack of any documents for personal water transport. Unregistered jet skis and technical inspection did not pass, which means that no one can predict whether the extreme will reach the end point or not. One way or another, extreme outside the law often leads to tragedy.
The disappointing statistics of this year - three dead - is a confirmation of this. Employees of GIMS note that almost half of Surgut extreme sportsmen are "illegal" hydrocyclists who are not listed anywhere. It is quite difficult to track their level of preparation. Therefore, such water races are held so that extreme people gather in a civilized, and most importantly controlled, environment.

What extreme sports have been developed in Surgut?

Various extreme sports have been developed in Surgut, but not all of them are actively developing. The city has a single center of extreme sports. It is located on Hare Island - in the area of ​​\u200b\u200btreatment facilities. The administration is already thinking about a road that will connect the sports facility with the city. The idea to put all technical events under one roof came about when the question of building a new motocross track arose.

We learned…

Four Surgut travelers became the first Russians to cross the Bering Strait on jet skis. The expedition "In the footsteps of Vitus Bering" ended the day before. The daredevils shared their impressions with a STV correspondent by phone from Chukotka.

“The total length of the route we covered is about 1,900 kilometers. Here in Chukotka, no one believed in this project, and we had many administrative obstacles. This is the border zone, and visas, and everything that you may not even be aware of. We overcame all this and got the maximum pleasure, impressions, adrenaline, ”says one of the travelers Andrey Prudnikov.

Yugra voyage.

Extreme sportsmen from Surgut set off on a journey along the route Surgut - Trom-Egan - Russkinskaya. In total, about 40 people gathered for the Ugra voyage. The route was 320 km. The group included both beginners and experienced travelers.
During the run, extreme sportsmen from Nizhnevartovsk and Nefteyugansk will join the Surgut group. The journey lasted about 3 days.

We conducted an oral survey on the topic: “How do you feel about extreme sports?” And got the following responses:

Never! I'm a terrible coward! For me, a ride in an elevator is already extreme, what kind of parachutes are there!

Valentina is 15 years old.

Normal, but not for everyone, some are very extreme, I jumped from a parachute, I liked it very much.

Alina is 34 years old.

Snowboarding, skydiving, paragliding, rope jumping, rafting, rock climbing - I really like it!

Ekaterina is 19 years old.

I love snowboarding - only thanks to it you can survive the winter! I want to jump from a parachute, but I'm terribly afraid of heights, but in general I have a positive attitude towards extreme sports, the main thing is not to go too far in this matter and be careful. I also dream of learning how to surf!

Daria is 29 years old.

I have a good attitude, I love snowboarding and skiing, I'm going to skydive in the summer.

Julia is 21 years old.

I'm fine. I love Le Mans racing. All my life I dreamed of at least visiting these races. Just a mesmerizing sight!

Vasily is 68 years old.

Conclusion:

In conclusion, I would like to say that extreme sports make us stronger, bolder and more experienced, allowing us to look at life from a different perspective. But always and in all your undertakings, you should be guided by common sense and not climb on the rampage. Nothing has a greater value than human life and health. And the list of dangerous extreme sports can be continued almost indefinitely, because humanity itself does not stand still.

Prepare an information report and presentation. Conduct an oral poll of the opinions of various people on a given problem. Prepare an informational newspaper about extreme sports.

We put forward the following hypothesis: More and more young people began to look for themselves in extreme sports. Why do they do it?

Where did the word extreme come from? Extreme (English extreme - the opposite, having a high degree, excessive, special) - outstanding, extraordinary actions, usually associated with a danger to life.

An extreme is a person who has an excellent physical shape and a desire to resist the natural forces of nature. As a rule, extreme people are very brave, fearless and gambling people. Extreme is ready to risk his health to get an additional dose of adrenaline in the blood. Recently, the number of fans of extreme sports is growing rapidly, as well as the extreme sports themselves.

A bit of history… The first extreme sport appeared in Japan. Some modern sports that have been promoted in the world since the 1950s have gradually come to be called extreme. Such sports include trials, skateboarding, snowboarding, skydiving, rock climbing, caving, rope jumping, etc. sports time.

People who want to go in for extreme sports should be in good physical shape and in a good mood, they should be psychologically prepared. In addition, the extreme must know the laws of nature and be able to resist them, and the extreme must have an excellent reaction, be ready to make quick decisions. Naturally, if necessary, extreme people must take risks, which in turn must be justified.

Sports that seemed extreme 30 years ago are now perceived as ordinary. And feeling this, they do not stand still and are constantly improving.

Now let's answer the questions asked.

Why do people love extreme sports?

How are extreme sports different from regular sports? Extreme sports are different from ordinary sports, as they are associated with increased injuries or even a threat to life. And this is considered normal for him. Of course, about almost any sport, you can say that it has both dangers and risks. But there they happen more by chance, which cannot be said about extreme sports, where the athlete knows in advance that he is taking risks. Unforeseen circumstances in such sports are what they go for consciously, and not from what they run away from, they prepare themselves in advance, starting with the most ordinary, gradually improving their skills and tricks, and eventually doing something that defies any description.

What character traits and physical qualities are developed by extreme sports? Do extreme sports affect a person’s character, because it seems that extreme sports should make a person’s physical body stronger, faster, more resilient and more flexible, but does sports do the same with our character. Here the opinions are divided: more than half believe that extreme sports affect the character of a person, including us.

Thank you for your attention

Extreme is a special impulse of the soul and body to throw out as much adrenaline and emotions as possible. Extreme - a state of "on the verge", it is a simultaneous outburst of positive and negative emotions, awareness of one's own greatness and powerlessness.
Extreme people are people who are ready to risk their own (and not only their own) lives all day long. These are those who clearly understand what they are risking, but, nevertheless, are constantly on the verge, filling their lives with fresh bright colors.

Philosophy of extreme
The philosophy of extreme is ambiguous. For many, it is about getting the ultimate thrill, balancing on the verge of life and death. There are also people for whom extreme sports are an opportunity to constantly maintain a heightened sense of life. Extreme athletes usually differ in such characteristics as courage, strong willpower, excellent physical shape (despite the abundance of injuries).

Extreme and sports
Some modern sports that have been promoted in the world since the 50s of the 20th century have gradually come to be called extreme. These sports include: BMX, trial, skateboarding, snowboarding, skydiving, rock climbing. Extreme sports are born every day.

It is known that when people engage in extreme sports, a large amount of adrenaline is released.
Adrenaline (epinephrine) (L-1 (3,4-Dioxyphenyl) -2-methylaminoethanol) is the main hormone of the adrenal medulla, as well as a neurotransmitter. According to the chemical structure, it is a catecholamine. Adrenaline is found in various organs and tissues; it is formed in significant quantities in chromaffin tissue, especially in the adrenal medulla.


Aggression is too common in modern life.
Physical inactivity, the accumulation of negativity begin to corrode a person from the inside. Often this ends with heart disease, nervous breakdowns, dissatisfaction with oneself, people around and life.
To get rid of such a state, to find new emotions, many begin to look for activities associated with risk, extreme sports, with an injection of adrenaline and a surge of emotions.
Today there are many opportunities to take reasonable risks, to know oneself, to discover talents hidden deep in a person. It is the sport associated with risk that enables a person to discharge the accumulated negative energy, to relieve aggression.
Extreme sports are directly related to risk. This is an increased traumatism, even a threat to life, this is a voluntary consent to be exposed to mortal danger. Members of these species consciously perform those actions that others completely reject.

But extreme sports have many positive aspects:
- a person, doing extreme sports, gains self-confidence, which has a positive effect on various areas of activity, on work and family relationships;
- self-esteem increases, the possibility of self-realization increases, complexes and fears are overcome, which gives a feeling of freedom and confidence;
- this sport helps a person to overcome negative emotions, teaches to concentrate in different life situations, self-discipline;
- makes it possible to rethink values, overcome stereotypes, change opinions about others, awakens interest in life.
Extreme sports are characterized by high speeds, depths, heights. In order for the athlete not to be injured, serious physical and psychological readiness is needed.


There is a negative side to extreme sports:
- dependence on extreme sports is akin to a drug addiction, that is, it becomes necessary to increase the dose of adrenaline;
- going in for extreme sports, a person no longer knows how to have fun in another way;
- plunging into extreme sensations, a person can escape from reality, preferring only sports;
- these sports are associated with nervous exhaustion due to constant adrenaline;
- the load on the cardiovascular system violates the vestibular apparatus over time.


The most popular types of extreme sports.
1) Diving - most popular view sports. Combining sports and passion, it attracts people of various interests and different levels of physical fitness. This is a dive into the water world with special equipment, scuba gear, in order to study the underwater world.
2) Surfing - balancing on a special board on a big wave. Enough ancient view sports.

5) Climbing - climbing on rocks or a climbing wall without insurance.
6) Kayaking - rafting on difficult rapids, difficult currents, sections of the river on long narrow boats.
Parachuting, mountain climbing, winter swimming and others can also be called extreme sports. Engaging in extreme sports is a vocation, it is character, it is the will and the ability to take reasonable risks, getting strong emotions and unusual relaxation.

One of the most rewarding activities is sports. Some do it because they want to look good, others because they like the boost of energy that sports give them. But there are those who go in for extreme sports to get a good dose of adrenaline. Not everyone dares to do this sport, as it is quite dangerous. In this rating, we will talk about the most extreme and dangerous sports.

This is a young, rapidly gaining popularity sport, the basis of which is movement under the action of the traction force developed by a kite held and controlled by an athlete. This is a very fashionable and dynamic, spectacular and rather extreme sport. With the help of the wind, the kite tows you where you want, not the wind. For kitesurfing, any place with wind towards the shore is suitable. A large open body of water and a comfortable place to take off and land a kite are very important. Many people are engaged in kitesurfing along the coast of the ocean, as well as on large lakes and rivers. It all depends on the level of the surfer and his place of residence.

It is the art of moving and overcoming obstacles, a discipline based on a simple philosophy: there are no boundaries, only obstacles. Many practitioners perceive it as a lifestyle. It is currently being actively practiced and developed in many countries. The essence of parkour is the movement and overcoming of various obstacles, both existing architectural structures such as railings, parapets, walls, etc., and specially made structures. A person who does parkour is called a tracer. People who have been doing parkour for a long time do it beautifully and clearly, but sometimes beginners cannot do without abrasions, bruises and fractures.

Downhill skiing on a long skateboard in the prone position appeared in Southern California in the 70s of the last century. Over time, the organizers of the races have become more serious about safety, track regulation and inventory requirements. Street lagging rules are now regulated by several racing associations, and the sport itself is included in the demonstration program of the summer X-Games. In total, there are about 1200 active riders in the world, but it can be assumed that there are many more of them and not all of them live according to the rules of official organizations.

Of the safety equipment, riders only have a helmet, elbow and knee pads, gloves and a tracksuit. This is quite a bit, considering that it is difficult to force a skateboard that has accelerated to slow down quickly. In street lagging, riders slow down on any objects that get in their way - walls, cars, stones and trees. Obviously, only the luckiest riders don't get hurt with this way of stopping!

This is a time rafting on mountain rivers with the passage of natural and artificial obstacles on special 6-, 4- and 2-seater inflatable boats. Rafting is a team sport and each participant performs certain functions during the rafting, and the crew as a whole follows the instructions of the leader-captain. As a sport, it was included in the All-Russian Register of Sports in 2003. Rafting is a commercial type of rafting, which means that no previous experience is required to participate in the rafting. It is also quite a dangerous sport, especially when it comes to routes of the 3rd and higher category of difficulty. The main dangers are: overcoming powerful rapids and waterfalls, falling into rubble and underwater pockets, getting injured, hypothermia, remoteness from civilization and, as a rule, lack of communication with rescue services.

Diving with special equipment that provides an autonomous supply of air for breathing under water from several minutes to 12 or more hours, depending on the depth, type of breathing apparatus and consumption of the gas mixture by the diver. There are 3 types of diving: recreational diving - diving for recreation and pleasure, professional diving and sport diving. To be a scuba diver, you need to have a set of skills to deal with the vast majority of diving problems. These skills and knowledge are acquired during the training process and are confirmed by a certificate from one of the diving associations. Diving is always associated with a danger to life and health. Main hazards: drowning, decompression sickness, barotrauma, gas poisoning and oxygen depletion or technical breakdown.

Bull taming or Rodeo is a cowboy sport that includes taming a wild horse, riding a horse bareback, lassoing a bull, grappling with a wild bull and taming it with a lasso, riding a wild bull. Distributed in the USA, Canada and Australia. The cowboy must not only stay on horseback for 8 seconds, but also show the potential of the animal by spurring it. No other sport can be as dangerous in terms of bodily injury as bull rodeo. Here is a complete set for medical research: sprains and ruptures of muscles and ligaments, fractures of various degrees of severity, blows, etc. The rider takes a risk every time he mounts a bull.

A type of technical diving done in caves where the so-called overhead environment exists. In fact, this is the same diving, only in underwater caves. It is a very dangerous sport and places extremely high demands on the skills of the swimmer, the reliability of the equipment and the configuration of the equipment. The main danger of cave diving is that it is difficult or impossible to make an emergency ascent. But there are other dangers as well. The risk of getting lost or not calculating the air supply - therefore the air reserve. There is always a chance of being left without artificial light, so you need to be able to swim and navigate in complete darkness. There is a danger of damaging the equipment by hitting a wall or ceiling. A large amount of silt can obstruct visibility for a long time, and just like in the dark, you have to look for a way out blindly.

Paragliding is paragliding using the lift force of ascending air currents. Such currents arise due to wind and terrain, for example, when the wind blows towards a mountain or when there is an updraft of heated air. A steam glider is a simple system of a fabric wing, ropes and a system. The movement is carried out due to the special shape of the wing of the steam plane, into which air is drawn, due to which it is picked up by the wind and carried in any direction. Paragliding is a rather dangerous, but very fashionable kind of aviation extreme sport.

The athlete is required not only to be in good physical shape, but also to have a good knowledge of physics, the atmosphere, the behavior of air flows, etc. As a rule, the flight begins at the top of mountains, hills or rocks, where a powerful air flow rushes up at high speed, skirting the top. The pilot should not be either an alarmist or a scorcher. It's the same with risk - smart calculation is always better. And not only for the pilot himself. After all, he is not alone in the sky and, risking himself, can create a dangerous situation for other paragliders.

The top three most extreme sports are mountaineering - climbing the tops of mountains. The sporting essence of mountaineering is to overcome the obstacles created by nature on the way to the top. In sports competitions in mountaineering, the object of the competition is the height of the peak, the technical complexity of the route traveled, its nature and length. When passing mountainous terrain and glaciers, there is a danger of falling, dislocations, fractures, avalanches and other dangerous situations that can happen even if safety precautions and all mountaineering rules are observed.

A kind of alpine skiing, freeride, the essence of which is to descend along untouched snowy slopes, far from prepared tracks, with an ascent to the beginning of the descent by helicopter. Using a helicopter for ascent allows you to find various options for descending from the mountains in the conditions of pristine, untouched nature, where there is no other way to quickly climb. Depending on the type of helicopter, its carrying capacity, there may be several people in a group of skiers. The group, as a rule, is accompanied by a guide who knows well the peculiarities of the descent along certain slopes. Where there are mountains, there is always risk and danger. To practice heli-skiing, skiers must have a good command of the technique of descending on virgin lands on slopes of various steepness. To ensure safety, each skier must have an avalanche beacon, an avalanche probe, a shovel and other necessary equipment to quickly search for people in an avalanche, because. there is a risk of falling into an avalanche.

The most extreme and dangerous sport that uses a special parachute for jumping from fixed objects. Base jumping is considered the most dangerous type of skydiving and is currently considered as an extremely extreme sport. The height from which the base jumper jumps can be from 40 to 1000 meters, while ordinary skydivers jump from a height of at least 1000 meters. The lower the object, the higher the jumper's skill is considered, and the more dangerous the jump. Another difficulty of this particular sport is that you need to open the parachute in just a few seconds at the very beginning of the jump.

For base jumping, specially designed parachutes are used, which are significantly different from ordinary ones. They do not have a reserve parachute, since it will not be useful at such a low altitude, and there are no belay devices. The difficulty in base jumping lies in the fact that landing usually occurs on limited surfaces, and therefore requires a lot of experience from the base jumper piloting a parachute. Attempts to base jump independently without the proper equipment and skills usually result in severe injury or death.
