Why are Caucasians always doing the crazy exploration/stunt stuff?

- Race car, motocross, motogp, etc
- Wing suit flying
- Jumping out of air balloons from the stratosphere
- Race rowing across the Atlantic
- Ultramarathons
- Running marathons at the north and south poles
- Sailing across the Atlantic to discover the new world
- Base jumping
- Free solo rock climbing
- One way ticket to Mars
- Free diving
- First airplane
- Cave diving
- Walking on the moon
- Swimming the English channel
- Alpine climbing ... Mt. Everest


Anyone ever noticed this too? It's almost always some Caucasian dude going ... "Hey! Lets go run a marathon in the arctic circle! ... or ... "I'm gonna go jump out of this balloon at the edge of space and try and break the speed of sound!"


Some cool videos illustrating my point...

Probably because it is the demographic most likely to have both free time and disposable income. Hard to take up jumping out of airplanes when you make the median worldwide household income of $9,733

Asians are too busy studying and taking over the world
Black people are too busy being angry and paranoid thinking they're oppressed by everyone
Hispanics are too busy being just happy little hispanics having fiestas and drinking cervezas.
Survival. When the jungle tears itself down and builds itself into something new. Guys like you and me, we end up dead. Doesn’t really mean anything. Or, if we happen to live through it, well that doesn’t mean anything either.

Probably a combination of resources, environment, and upbringing. If you're a poor minority who has rarely ever left his state, jumping out of a hot air balloon for fun is probably the last thing on your mind.

Whites put less emphasis on fuking. They also use activities like that in hopes it leads to mating or friendship via indirect route. Finally its chit to do to stay busy. They tend to have more disposable mommy daddy income to go "experience life" with. Lastly family structure is usually better, so if you see your dad in the morning sipping coffee making the iditarod dog sled race out to be a big deal, youll think its a big deal even though to me its dumb non athletic freezing your balls off while making animals work hard bs. No offense to alaska i mean if u like that chit cool.

I dunno. I've met a lot of broke mothaf'ers skydiving. Pack a few chutes ... make a few dollars ... jump out of an airplane. A lot of the crazy rock climbers are broke too.

Most of the people i saw hiking and biking across the USA had little to no money and 99% of them were Caucasian.

There is a difference between broke in the US or Europe where you gotta live in a cheap ****hole place and eat ramen and broke in China or India where you are homeless, starving and drink water that is colored like the rainbow due to heavy metal contamination.

Ya... but there are still tens of millions of non Caucasians out there that don't live in chitholes. All of this stuff is so overwhelmingly done by Caucasians ... way more than their share of the population. I remember reading that special forces in the USA follows the same trend too... almost all Caucasians.

IMO it's gotta be some weird cultural or genetic anomaly.

Tell that to the Asian teenagers in Vancouver driving million dollar cars (literally was a teenager that owned a Bugatti in Vancouver) and living in their $5 million dollar condo.

Just wait, one day blacks will get jealous of this stuff too and say we'e excluding them from rock climbing and race rowing. It's the next complaint hurdle on the horizon.


In b4 oversensitive people get bent out of shape by this post.
"One day I won't be able to lift any more. Not I won't want to lift. I mean physically unable. That day could be decades from now or it could be tomorrow. All I know is that's the day I'll wish I could lift more than ever. The day I'd give anything for one more workout, one more set, or one more cardio session. So go hard and enjoy every workout, every set, every rep. Because one day you will wake up and you will never get it back."

Because of that modern westernized YOLO lifestyle. I doubt small town rural whites back then cared about anything other marrying early and raising 10 children.

Whites will have any disposable income and go live life to the fullest even if poor. Asians would never do that. Blacks and Hispanics have problems even getting disposable income.

Honestly tho some of it is from societal/cultural pressures. I'm completely white washed lol but my parents are foreign and a lot of things I do might break their hearts. I still do whatever the fk I wanna do but I'm the exception for non-white brahs. Also family expectations etc

Maybe cultural/genetic? If we think on evolutionary terms and the migration out of Africa, only those brave/crazy/curious would have left to explore the rest of the planet, and those attributes would've passed on even in examples through the 20th century and now in terms of having colonies and space exploration, etc.

I met a young South Korean guy that was camping/couch surfing across the USA when i was bicycling across the country. Dude said back in Korea they have some awesome mountains and nature stuff, but almost nobody does it. He said he was the only person he knew that was remotely interested in climbing/hiking/nature.
