If you consider yourself to be the ultimate thrill-seeking, fear-thriving, adrenaline junkie, why not take it to the next level with a double dose of orbing? You and a lucky friend will first be securely harnessed by your hands and feet into a giant inflatable hamster ball, otherwise known as an orb. Then you will be rolled down a hill and, since this giant ball can reach speeds of up to 30mph as it flies down the UK's longest orb run, you will be truly be head over heels! Before you've had chance to catch your breath, go again. But this time with a bucket of soapy water and no harness, for a virtual washing machine spin-cycle experience! That should be enough to sufficiently shake and stir your bones. And should anyone later dare to disbelieve your story of heroism, show them the free head cams both of you receive on the day, they show exactly what it was like on the inside. You both receive a complimentary drink and as well as your headcam cd and an 'Orbsome' t-shirt to take home.

Throwing yourself out of a plane at 10,000 feet might be considered utter madness. But if close friends start wondering aloud about your sanity (or the contents of your will), you can reassure them that you'll be attached (literally) to an expert instructor and that, frankly, you're in for an experience so exhilarating that you'll probably never stop talking about it. It begins with around an hour of instruction on skydiving and landing techniques, before you go up in the plane. You'll be securely harnessed to your instructor, who will help you jump from the plane (or at least help you fall with style). You'll get about 30 seconds of freefall, which is so completely incredible there's no point in us trying to describe it. Then your instructor will open the parachute and control your descent while you admire the view and try to come to terms with the adrenaline rush. Mind blowing.
Got a head for heights, nerves of steel and a love of the great outdoors? Don't mind chilly Scottish weather or the occasional midge bite? Then head to the Highlands for a day's climbing on one of the world's classic mountaineering routes. With the services of a private guide, you'll tackle a route up either Ben Nevis or Glencoe. It will be challenging, exhausting and occasionally nerve-racking - but also uplifting, inspiring and breathtakingly beautiful. You'll be supplied with all technical equipment, and your guide will place all ropes and protection, leaving you to get on with enjoying your spectacular surroundings in complete safety. The day will combine walking, hiking and climbing as you go high into the mountain, and ends with a thorough debrief at the National Ice Climbing Centre. You'll receive a CD-Rom with photos of your day and a mug of hot chocolate, before rewarding your aching limbs with a sauna and steam.
You've got to hand it the army - they've definitely got the best wheels. You can't beat a day driving around in military vehicles and shooting at stuff. All the fun of being a soldier with none of the risks. You'll be kitted out in a camouflage suit and helmet and given a full safety briefing. During the course of the day you'll drive a Russian Grozdilka tank, a fully amphibious Hagglund tracked carrier, an FV 432 armoured personnel carrier and a Rapier rocket carrier. You'll get a ride in a Lance missile carrier, spend an hour in the armoury and there are other military-themed activities too - learn how to fire a range of classic weapons like mortars and muskets (mind your eyebrows!), go on an SAS woodland patrol and try clay-pigeon shooting. At the end of the day, the best driver will get to crush a car with a 56 ton Chieftain tank! Lunch is included, and you even get to keep your camo suit. So leave the tv behind and come and get in touch with your rough and ready side!
