Parkour, skydiving, downhill skiing, motorcycling, drag racing, autoerotic asphyxiation, Russian roulette. Out of all the things known to nature, humans find the most incredible ways to entertain and please themselves to death.

They'll do whatever you want them to do, because they are neither real nor human.
