I think most sailors or mountaneers actively AVOID storms\"bad" weather,etc.
Are there any remarkable cases of human explorers actively challenging an event in its worst condition?

I was about to say something about this. I spent a few years as a merchant seaman, and the last American ship that went straight into a hurricane was the el faro. They all died. I had this bos’n who used to make fun of this gay sailor meme group on Facebook wayback when because they would post about being “MASTER OF THE SEA”. The sea will fuck you up without even trying which is why you have to work your way around it, not the other way around.

Anyways, I’m sure there have been people that have tried what you’re talking about. They’re probably dead.

Some mountaineers deliberately seek out worse climatic conditions, that's why we distinguish between winter ascents and summer ascents

Big wave surfers chase swells around the world. If you went out in those conditions you'd die.

Lifeboats don’t get launched unless there is literally no other option because your chances of survival go down significantly if you do. I wouldn’t call that “defying nature”

I've tried to convince my friends to start a sport where we hide in the woods in ghillie suits and have to seek out and fight each other, but no one wants to do it with me.

I want to do the Man Tracker tv show, but instead of a horse and escaping, we try to metal gear solid each other.

Presumably the issue with those is that they are weapon-based rather than hand to hand

But how would it even work then? If you’re both hiding in the woods trying to ambush the other you’re just going to end up sitting around never finding each other. Then even if you do it’s just an mma match in the woods. Sounds gay as fuck

The grandfather of parkour, Georges Hébert, developed his obstacle course training methodology partially based on his experiences in the rescue efforts in the town of St. Pierre on Martinique following the 1902 eruption of Mount Pelée.

I don't understand how this is supposed to make sense when Jewkraine is literally being ran by a Jew who's siphoning billions from a war he caused and is promoting degeneracy.
Stick to Twitter. Pig.

You go into a mountain with a storm bad enough and you're dead, no matter how hard of well prepared you are. There's a reason why what you're looking for isn't a thing.

"he survived by fishing (and using fish as source of both fresh water and food) with a self-made harpoon and hooks, and harvesting the surface plankton with a small net. He also drank a limited amount of seawater for a long period on his trip. " there are several Book about this guy
