危险的运动或活动会吸引某种类型的人。这个人经常是一个冒险者，一个乐观主义者，一个宿命论者。
People who take risks are found both in dangerous sports and business. But it is a special person who takes a risk with his own life as opposed to his money. My father was a risk taker. He put everything be owned into his business, but he stopped playing risky sports like horseback riding and skiing. Once his business was a success and he no longer bad to worry about providing for us, he returned on the age of 60, to the risky sports that he did as a youth.
冒险的人在危险的运动和商业中都有。但这是一个特殊的人，他用自己的生命而不是金钱去冒险。我父亲是个冒险者。他把所有的东西都投入自己的生意，但他不再从事骑马和滑雪等冒险运动。一旦他的生意成功了，他不再担心养活我们，他60岁时又回到了他年轻时从事的冒险运动中去。
Someone who plays a dangerous sport must be an optimist. They cannot imagine that anything will happen to them. They never think about breaking their leg while skiing, falling off a cliff while rock climbing, falling on their head while sky diving. They live for the thrill of the moment without a thought to the many things that could go wrong.
从事危险运动的人一定是个乐观主义者。他们无法想象会发生什么事。他们从来没有想过滑雪时摔断腿，攀岩时从悬崖上摔下来，跳伞时头上掉下来。他们活在当下的兴奋中，没有考虑到可能会出问题的许多事情。
Rock climbers and sports car drivers must be fatalist. They might plan for potential problems, but once they have done everything they can do, the outcome is out of their bands. A motorcyclist when jumps across a narrow canyon will get the fastest, strongest bike available that will carry him or her across the canyon, however, wind conditions or other problems might interfere and the cyclist my fall short of his goal.
攀岩者和跑车司机一定是宿命论者。他们可能会计划潜在的问题，但一旦他们做了他们能做的一切，结果就超出了他们的能力范围。一个骑摩托车的人在穿越狭窄的峡谷时，会得到最快、最结实的自行车，它能载着他或她穿过峡谷，然而，风的条件或其他问题可能会干扰，骑自行车的人可能达不到他的目标。
Many people have the same traits of course. Many of us are risk takers, optimists and fatalists. But I think people who play dangerous sports must have these characteristics in abundance.
当然，许多人都有相同的特点。我们中的许多人是冒险者、乐观主义者和宿命论者。但我认为从事危险运动的人一定有这些特点
