Interesting read about Extreme Sports addiction

Recommended Posts

Whats up everyone, kind of crazy and if you want an interesting quick read. This kind of goes into why skydiving and extreme sports arent just for the addrenaline, but the euphoric feeling. Pretty interesting. Give it a read.

Not a bad article but seems very amateurish. Pretty much just working from assumptions. If the authors theory were factual, then everyone who suddenly gets a high dose of dopamine would be addicted which isnt the case.

I still think the theory of low MAO levels is much more accurate based on what we see with extreme sports athletes, violent criminals, addicts, etc.
