Blood Type and BASE
I read a publication recently about blood type and psychological disposition.

One thing that caught my eye was that Blood Type O's are originally hunter-carnivores, and that because of this they tend to engage is risk taking behaviours and have an inherent belief that everything will always work out in their favor.

This led me to wonder if there are more blood type O BASE participants in comparison to average blood type dispersions.

Not very exciting I know...but I am bored...

Re: [1108] Blood Type and BASE
It is worth noting that:

45% of white americans have O blood

51% of african americans have O blood

57% of hispanic americans have O blood

41% of asian americans have O blood

O blood is by far the most common...so these results will be skewed no matter the makeup of BASE jumpers....

A is the second most common

I'm almost tempted to pull my medical records out of the garage and see if they list my blood type.

Of course there are more type O individuals. I guess I should have written if there are more type O BASE participants than the natural selection would suggest.
