Does the Torah allow for recreational activities that threaten life and Limb?
Lich'ora from the Mitzvah of "v'nishmarten m'od et Nafshoteichem" it would follow that this is a no-no.
For more on the Hashqafa side of this - see Hovot Halvavot Shaar Habbitachon ch. 4 about our responsibilites Mitzideinu to avoid reckless behaviour despite that Hashem has already determined the length of our lives [Lev Tov edition pp. 351-2]
Shalom,
