Norway has absolutely beautiful landscapes, including crazy 


cliffs that call to people to climb them and then BASE jump 


off the top. Here's a look at some of those incredible cliffs, as 


well as some insanely dangerous switchback roads to get to 


them in Norway. Thrill seekers, photographers, hikers and 


climbers take in these majestic views of nature. And then, 


there's BASE jumpers who have a much more extreme need 


for adrenaline. Charles Lindbergh once said of his 


adrenaline rush, “It is the greatest shot of adrenaline to be 


doing what you have wanted to do so badly. You almost feel 


like you could fly without the plane.” Here in Norway, as if 


they've turned into Superman, some adrenaline junkies do fly 


without a plane. .(Link)
