I trekked the Inca Trail for charity with a bunch of strangers - toughest thing I've ever done cos I'm a bit phobic about heights (well more the chance of a fall from height) and we had up to 1000 metre drops at the side of the trail...don't even get me started about almost falling down the fecking cliff whilst having a "wilderness wee" - I still get flashbacks  |

Fingers crossed I should be going camping in the wilds with some of my mentally debatable metalhead friends this summer for about a week.
Hope I don't wake up buried! Otherwise I'm going to have to use all their beer and a bar of soap to get the soil out of my awkward bits. |

Bungee, Sky Dive, extreme downhill biking, white water rafting, river boarding (Google that bad boy!), muff diving, very dangerous quad biking with a nut job farmer in NZ, lots of other similar things too. I'm not bragging though... |

I went black water rafting once, it was great fun.
You'd love it Loz, a great combination of being underground in the pitch black floating on deep water.  |

i would contact the people organising the event and ask about safety measures. I'm betting there are some in place and that might set your mind at ease re your phobia, and also re being in mummy mode and watching your sons safety on the day. good luck,  |

I lost my balls in my gut when I first saw that |
