But otherwise nothing will come of it. We shall not bring back a single bit of gold or silver, not a gem, nor any coal or iron... If you cannot understand that there is something in man which responds to the challenge of this mountain and goes out to meet it, that the struggle is the struggle of life itself upward and forever upward, then you won't see why we go. What we get from this adventure is just sheer joy. And joy is, after all, the end of life. We do not live to eat and make money. We eat and make money to be able to live. That is what life means and what life is for.”

The issue is instincts that are handed down, Caucasians come from a place with absolutely no predators making them fear less stuff, just look at where all the scared folk come from ad the predators in their habitat. If you actually look at history and current times you could say that the Caucasian is everybody else's predator in a sense. You don't have to tell a mouse or rat from the wild to fear snake,s hence why those videos with the snakes being fed a mouse look so fightless, stick a wild rat in there and he will do his best to get away from it even though he does't know what it is.

I have often wondered this. Northern European countries also have much harsher climates in terms of cold which could have been be a factor in selection of traits.

There is definitely a slight crazy/ risk taking gene. It leads to countless dead bodies on Mt Everest but it also leads to landing on the moon sometimes

Because of this thread I'm contemplating giving rock climbing/bouldering a shot, thanks OP.

Possible benefits:
- Diet adherence. To be competitive in the sport you need to have a BMI maxed at 24-25BMI, this would put me in a comfortable weight and sick **** BF
- Getting progressively stronger (relatively to my BW, especially on the Deadlift) because of my sick grip and my killer muscle:weight ratio
- Has the puzzle solving benefits from chess and other logical games but inserted into a physical activity. I used to practice BJJ for the same reason but I got tired of sniffing crotches on a weekly basis by the time I got my purple belt
- If I ever get to practice outdoor I will have some sick landscapes to photograph and revisit when I'm a fragile old dude
- The rock-climbing community loves beer and weed

Cons:
- Freaky accident

These people are well within their comfort zones. They are not taking risks since they are fully confident in their abilities; though to most people these would indeed be risky behaviours.

One of friends from home works a few months then travels around the world. She's in her 30's and still doing that stuff. She even dumpster dives for food while she's exploring. The kicker is her parents are paying her bills (just LOL at white kids sometimes).

I think culture has to do with it.

For example, East Asians are very risk-averse, collectivistic, and pragmatic. Call me boring, but if given the choice of attending Harvard, reading Financial Times everyday, and slaving at Goldman Sachs vs. having all the free time in the world, exploring and doing crazy stuff... I'd gladly take the first one.

One the other hand, Caucasians tend to be more individualistic, better risk takers, and less pragmatic, and they tend to love the nature more.

Good luck!

Also I feel like a lot of minorities, especially Asians prefers stability. I don't know any Asians that skies/snowboard, hikes, camp, etc. Those activities aren't stable.

White people seek thrills to cure boredom.
Black people seek thrills to pay their bills.

I think fatherless homes and thugs are a bit more concerning than little Timmy Mac over there jumping out of a helicopter or bungee jumping. Weird thing for you to race quantify, OP. I hate race quantifying in general, but the past few years, it's increasingly annoying to see the way the general public and mainstream media talk about "wypipo." Define white people. What races are included? That's a pretty big fukking umbrella.

Well yea, no sh!t boyo, why go out of your way to get mugged for being a whiter shade of pale? I've walked through Camden, NJ three sheets to the wind, and didn't feel all that nervous. (At the time it had the highest murder rate in the country.) Stayed there for a week or two. When me and a friend were leaving, he drove down a one-way on accident, and 5 - 8 people started surrounding the car and walking towards it from every angle. He almost hit a few of them speeding away.

There's no way that's accurate. I agree it's more dangerous to climb mountains, for sure. But there's certainly more deaths in a single city in a year than the collective mountain climbing deaths.

Yeah I was exaggerating.

Your point is true though. White people (better off ones that is, as well as people of other races who are better off financially) are just bored and need excitement in their lives. You don't need to go chasing for excitement when you have to worry about getting mugged in the streets every day.

As a debt collector/law brah/repo man/bailiff/sheriff/officer of justice/whatever your countries term is for my business, I can confidently say that low income peasants (white, black, yellow or green) will overspend on useless shet. Their priorities are completely different. After basic survival they throw away every penny they have in order to appear not peasantlike. My cleaning lady has an iPhone X. Her husband drives a second hand BMW 330i. Her husband also wears the ugliest designer shet ever, as long as it has the brand name on it in huge letters.

They buy all of it on credit or they buy shet tier used stuff... On credit.

The color of your skin doesn't matter, it just happens to be that people of color are for the time being more often in that lower income tier. And it's pretty basic psychology that if you are deprived of something you want, you'll go bananas when you can get even a sniff of it. The beta will tell the girl venting about chad that she's funny, smart and so much fun and she'll say "Haha you're so nice, so cute haha" and the beta male will pop a boner, but chad will still fuk her that night. The beta male will jack off sniffing panties he bought at h&m with some perfume sprayed on it, and this will be his personal form of succes. This is the equivalent of the poverty peasant with the fake rolex, EMPORIO ARMANI gold tshirt and maybe real Jordans. Looks expensive, might even be expensive, either way he spent all of his surplus income on that bs to look like he's not a peasant.

Look at Charlie Zelenoff, perfect example of a dude who has nothing trying to pretend he has everything.

Either way funny that someone would try to pretend the average black family is wealthier than the white families given how most Western countries are constructed on a socio-economical level.
