    I feel like they did that as a TV show with celebrities, similar idea to that Celebrity Splash high dive show

      It was called The Jump but it got cancelled after to 4 seasons due to sky high insurance costs due to several injuries and overall poor ratings.

      But I want to see Geoff from accounting, who has never done a vaguely extreme thing in his life, get strapped to a pair of skis and pushed down the ramp.

        This feels suspiciously specific. Is Geoff a willing participant in your scenario? How much do you care about how Geoff fares in the landing? Has Geoff been denying your expense reports?

          In my ideal world Geoff was chosen by lottery, he does not want to do it, but he surprises everyone by not absolutely eating shit and finishes cleanly.
