INTRODUCTION
The Dangerous Sports Club was formed by a close network of friends living in far corners of the globe, from Los Angeles to Shanghai. Originally founded in Oxford, England by Chairman David Kirke, the club arranged large-scale adventure trips, eventually completing over 80 different projects held in 40 countries.
The Dangerous Sports Club has pioneered events such as bungee jumping, microlighting and BASE jumping. Their stunts are known to be breathtaking, dangerous and fun. The Club also pioneered a surrealist form of skiing, holding three events at St Moritz, Switzerland, in which competitors were required to devise a sculpture mounted on skis and ride it down a mountain.
The Dangerous Sports Club Archive covers events since the organisation formed in 1979. These projects combine over 100 hours of edge-of-your seat action and mind-blowing stunts.
