I can't say I would strait up jump in the water but I can't swim and still go whitewater rafting, kayaking, canoeing and all that stuff. I just don't know what I would do if I ever fell in tho. Altho I am somewhat comfortable with my mortality that if I die doing something fun in the Rockies, I kicked the bucket happy.

I have done rafting, and tried to swim in a swimming pool, and river a bunch of times.
But deep sea dive is completely different stuff. If I had known it was so scary, I would not have jumped. I thought water is water, lol. I was wrong.
It's different when you can not see the bottom.
I understand perfectly. I am a strong swimmer, and love the water.
But I get it from my motorcycle riding. I've ridden over 50 years and know I am just a bad left turn from a car from dying. I'm ok with the risk AND the reward.
If a Buick does get me, don't mourn. Say instead "He had a hell of a run."
You are having a hell of a run in this life👍
Thank you, yes. And what's even more important is that I know it and celebrate it! Celebrate living!
I think if we die from doing something we love, it's only sad for those in our surroundings. I hear it all the time, a hike fell off a cliff in the rockies or in your case riding a motorcycle....such a tragedy...bla bla bla, in reality they died something they love experiencing life to the fullest, I don't think the rest of the world realizes that.
I agree. Absolutely.
And you are right, most of the world doesn't get it.
