Yes. I’ve known many missionaries. They have given up creature comforts and everything to serve people and God. Even non-believers usually have respect for missionaries because of what they have done for poor people in many countries.
I also know hikers and climbers. They are driven to take these risks. I don’t understand it but I don’t scorn those who choose to do so.
