Romantic. Terrifying. Both.

If you have trouble reading this email, go to the online version 02/09/14   Wild Things Horses, Crocodiles and Bungee Jumping We’ve got nothing against dinner dates. Or movie nights. Or couples pottery classes (well, maybe). It’s just that spicing up a relationship requires a bit more... creativity. So here are five ideas that’ll get your significant (or significant-ish) other’s adrenaline pumping. Because you don’t really know someone until you’ve heli-bungeed together.     CROC POT Diving with Crocodiles in Botswana   The Challenge: Swimming face-to-jaws with a bunch of massive African crocodiles in their natural habitat. So just make sure you can outswim your companion. The Risk: That they haven’t had lunch yet. The Reward: Après-diving in a secluded waterfront chalet. Also, not having your face eaten.   411: Quality Time with the African Crocodile via Big Animals Expeditions, Okavango Delta, Botswana, more info here     POLE POSITION Skydiving at the North Pole   The Challenge: It’s twofold, actually. First: you need to jump from a Russian aircraft several thousand feet above the North Pole. Second: you need to land in one piece. The Risk: Aside from a parachute malfunction, just Arctic winds and subzero temperatures. The Reward: Bragging rights; possibly a Santa Claus sighting.   411: North Pole Skydiving via North Pole Adventures, Moscow, Russia, more info here     NULL AND VOID A Terrifying Lookout in Switzerland   The Challenge: Standing in a glass box suspended 12,600 feet in the air, at the top of Mont-Blanc. The Risk: Discovering the meaning of vertigo. The Reward: A table for two at the highest restaurant in Europe, right next door. And it’s a safe bet the beer is cold.   411: Step into the Void via Compagnie du Mont-Blanc, Chamonix Mont-Blanc, Switzerland, more info here     BUNGEE WHIZ Heli-Bungee-Jumping over a Volcano   The Challenge: Bungee jumping. From a helicopter. Suspended over an active volcano in Chile. The Risk: Well, it’s hot. Like 1,000-degrees hot. The Reward: If your co-jumper can make it through this: keeper. If not: honestly, maybe cut them some slack...   411: Volcano Bungee via Bungee.com, Pucón, Chile, more info here     HORSING AROUND Horse Surfing. (Yep, Horse Surfing.)   The Challenge: Mounting a horse and riding it bodysurfer-style into some six-foot waves on an Australian beach. The Risk: None, really. Unless you’re allergic to horses or something. The Reward: A nice, long sunset ride on a secluded seven-mile beach. Bonus: horses are great at keeping secrets.   411: Horse Surfing via Pegasus Park Equestrian Centre, Bangalow, Australia, more info here UrbanDaddy is pure editorial.
