I don’t have a problem with doing it, even if I do have a problem with the necessity of rescue teams who sometimes have to get involved.

It is one thing if you go out for a hike and get lost in the woods and need rescuing.

It is quite another when you engage in something where you are rappelling up the side of a 15,000 foot mountain and they have to call in some rescue jumpers.

Even still, I accept it. We rescue people who need it...:)

Rescue people I have known like to do rescues, and take great pride in bringing off a difficult one. It might be a form of thrill-seeking too, but for a worthwhile purpose.
