Why would any company even want to insure reckless self endangerment?
Motor cyclists… rock climbers….parachutists….cliff jumpers… all the risk takers.
Then the first responders get to clean up the mess? Why?

Guilty of all those things. AMA professional motocross racer, and bull rider can be added to the list. Some people crave excitement. If you don’t, then you would never understand.
As a former first responder and volunteer firefighter, I feel safe in saying most are adrenaline junkies.
When I call my climbing friends in Colorado that are SAR they are always ready to climb in the backcountry when not on call. They train for the job. They enjoy the job.
I have always paid my insurance premiums. I may die in a climbing accident, but I prefer that to sitting on the sofa drunk, 50 pounds over weight, with clogged arteries.
