My life is not for the faint of heart.

A born adventurer from the start.

Falling from the great blue sky.

Only a parachute separates death and I.

Climbing the Korean mountain side.

Here I go; I paraglide

Sailing high above the trees.

In those few moments I am truly free

Eight hours of climbing Fuji San.

On the mountain top I stand.

High above the earth and clouds.

A finite being amongst the crowds.

Rotor blades whirl round and round.

As the Eurocopter I pilot touches down.

I land at a restaurant in Gifu.

Another wish of mine come true.

Why do I love adventure so?

I wish I could tell you.

But I don't know.

All I can say is "here we go."
