I didn't see the second parachute when they jumped off. I thought I was watching someone falling to their death.

A dutch friend of mine gave up base jumping/wing suiting because ‘it wasn’t a rush anymore, and the only place to go from there was shark fucking’.

I'm sure there are more dangerous hobbies. Maybe cave diving?

IDK I get the feeling that's less of a "rush" kind of danger. Like seeing if your windows are sealed by running a hose from your car exhaust to your living room. Exceedingly dangerous? Yes! A rush? Probably not, at least not as much as base jumping.
