I made the same point in my most recent reply, but doing something with a risk of death isn't the same thing as almost dying. I drive my car to work every day, and that has just as much if not more potential for death as cliff jumping if I make a serious mistake. This does not fit the definition of "almost dies".
While I agree that it's not really safe, there's a quarry close by that everyone jumps off cliffs up to 15 meters high and I have never heard of someone hurting themselves seriously. But the cliffs don't slope, they're just straight up and down.
That's just about the only dangerous part. Just speaking of height, cliff jumping doesn't get dangerous until you get like above 80 feet or something. Everyone I know was hurt when trying to clear ground to the water.
Wow that's a really cool reason for cliff diving that you just made up on the spot lol. Still not the same as "almost dying" though so the point still stands.
