Living to the Max plot

The more extreme the tricks, the greater the attention. In Living to the Max we see BMX rider Daniel, who broke almost all his bones, freediver Jeanine, who dives to a depth of 92 meters with one breath. We meet base jumper Jarno, who jumps off rocks in a bat suit. And we are looking for Max Verstappen, who was already driving in Formula 1 at the age of seventeen. What makes these daredevils so interesting and why do the public love to watch people play with death? Psychiatrist Damiaan Denys thinks he knows why: 'For those who look death in the eye, life takes on more meaning.'
