Climbing or doing anything risky without proper safety is stupid. Just my opinion, but no matter how skilled you are, shit happens eventually.

I really think adrenaline seekers like that are semi-passively suicidal.

My favorite quote from Annihilation:

Then, as a psychologist, I think you’re confusing suicide with self-destruction. Almost none of us commit suicide, and almost all of us self-destruct. In some way, in some part of our lives. We drink, or we smoke, we destabilize the good job…and a happy marriage. But these aren’t decisions, they’re…they’re impulses.
