what do you do for thrills that isn't physical?

[petemurphy]

I need to live more and increase the heart rate. however, with a bad back a lot of thrill seeking activities are off the table.

Any ideas what gets the heart rate going ( in a good way! ) that doesnt involve my back breaking?!

thanks

This being a motoring forum, what about trackdays or other driving experiences?

Hiding in bushes on popular thoroughfares having a tug ... The element of risk involved should increase the heart rate a bit lol

Stick it all on black.

That seems pretty physical to me.

Gamble, can't think of much else to get the adrenaline flowing that doesn't involve some kind of physical movement.

Poker.

Out yourself as a Corbynista on a few NP&E threads..

I've never done it, but I'd imagine that having a go in a glider would get the heart going a bit and should be fairly low impact.

From what I understand their are clubs dotted around the country and they're always keen to welcome interested newbies.

Scuba diving? Being weightless would be easy on the back and quite a thrill.

Radio controlled FPV flying (first person view)? I've recently got into this and it's a great way to empty the wallet!

Say something critical on Twitter about Corbyn or the Momentum sycophants.

It's a hardline Marxist echo chamber over there, where #kindergentlerpolitics is conspicuous by its absence.

Virtual reality and Resident Evil 7.

Certainly gets my heart beating.....

Go for a walk? Grab your headphones and go for a stroll listening to some music/audiobooks etc

Go with some friends and do an escape room.

Music/gigs/festivals? Perhaps the wrong time of year for the latter.
