Be a sport!

Extreme sports. There are loads of them, and all of us - at one point or another - have flirted with the idea of trying one sometime. Maybe. You know like... one day. Probably. Probably not though.

From skydiving and bungee jumping to whitewater rafting and spelunking (look it up), there are plenty of activities that get the adrenaline pumping and the parents worried. Some of us think the people who partake in such activities are crazy, others think they're totally badass.

You know the most extreme sport of the lot, though? Going through life with a phone that has no cover or screen protector on it. Now that makes us nervous! Please, be better and check out our deal on 5x Lito tempered glass screen protectors for iPhone or Samsung.
