FEELINGS..

meet Stingray.he is a surfer.he likes big waves ,big and dangerous waves..

but waves like this can kill you.so why does he surfs?
what makes him look for danger?doesnt he feel fear?
Dr. Ralph is a psychologist .he studys ppl like Stingray.he says they do feel fear but they are different from other people .and what is different is the chemistry of their brains.
Dr. Ralph says the differences in their brains chemistry make them do crazy things.'they do feel frightened ,like most of us,' says the doctor.
all of our brains make an important chemical called dopamine.the difference between 'ordinary people' and these 'adventurers' is that they do not have much dopamine.they look for dangerous situations without thinking.but when they are in danger,they feel fear, just like everyone else.
'people like this need new and exciting situations all the time.',says Dr Stein.'they are usually friendly and confident , but they get bored easily.' and so like Stingray when they see an enormous wave,they do not try to get away from it like most of us do.they swim towards it..
