Looking for an extreme adventure in New England?

If you're looking to experience one of the most extreme activities one could imagine, what would it be?

SKYDIVING???

Now you can experience the thrill of skydiving right here in New England.
Skydive New England offers Tandem Skydiving instruction on their own private airport.
We're located only 90 minutes from Downtown Boston, and 35 minutes from Downtown Portsmouth, NH.

So if you're up to the challenge of a lifetime.....
check out our website at http://www.SkydiveNewEngland.com
for all the details.

Blue Skies....

This is clearly an ad and therefore should NOT appear here!

On the other hand, the question is just ripe for sarcastic and entertaining answers -- like John's. I might have suggested walking across the Central Artery during the Big Dig. Or designated goal-tender for a Bruins game. Or standing in front of the Harvard Sq. T station with a "Go Yale" sandwich board.

Hey I like the direction this thread has taken. How about:
Try to travel two square blocks without encountering a "Dunkin Donuts".

Isn't "extreme adventure in New England" an oxymoron?

Haven't had this much fun a long time reading these answers... I agree...driving/negotiating in Boston for a week to the airport, pier or anything that has the Big Dig near it is really an "extreme sport".. Wonder if it will ever be finished in my life time...LOL
