Complacency Can Kill You: A True Story

Description

Entrepreneur, adventurer, adrenaline junkie come together on the pages of this story-telling, but factual book. If you have a bucket list, this man has probably completed it. Living the life of a small-town boy, Tony Morgan manages to work his 9 to 5 jobs while weaving tales of adventure and misadventure between the ordinary. Flanked on either side by friends who wish to take some risks and live out their own dreams, Tony takes you through their underwater, as well as their air born, victories and catastrophes. He journeys to interesting destinations both near and far, describing in detail some of his harrowing experiences which range from scuba diving into an ice-covered lake for the local sheriff's department to bungee jumping while on vacation in New Zealand. The stories are sprinkled with the humor and pranks that these characters share during their times together. His is not a life for the faint of heart, but for the heart that wishes to soar through life's journey without being halted by fear. Tony lives mindfully, and completely aware in the moment, to not only soar out of joy, but also out of necessity, because complacency in these adventures can kill you.
