Adrenaline Activity Days

What doesn't kill you makes you stronger, so assuming you survive, what are you waiting for? And if you don't like planes or you're scared of heights yada, yada, yada you can try indoor skydiving which recreates the sensation of falling through the air without the jumping out a plane bit.

Bungee Jumping

Paintballing

If running around with paintball guns doesn't appeal how about driving around in tank with a big paintball gun for some action-packed blasting at the opposition - unfortunately they're also in a tank but hey it's still war!
