Planning your next vacation? Fantasizing about going toe-to-toe with a wild animal other than Mike Tyson? Why not do both? Forget the boring all-inclusive beach resorts and inject your next getaway with some good ‘ole fight or flight adrenaline. Here are some of the world’s most beautiful destinations, as well as the homes for some of the planet’s deadliest animals. They’ll do more than just bite your ear off.

Surfing Hawaii

Aloha! Nothing beats catching the perfect wave. For a shark however nothing beats catching a fresh seal for lunch, which is exactly what you look like when paddling out on your board. Shark attacks are responsible for over 100 fatalities a year.

Scuba-diving in Papua New Guinea

Were you trembling with fear when Marlin and Dory were surrounded by jellyfish in Finding Nemo? I hope not ’cause that’s pretty lame. Nonetheless, jellyfish are extremely dangerous and kill as many people as sharks do in a year.

And if the jellyfish don’t kill ya, the humiliation of someone peeing on you to relieve the sting from their tentacles will.

African safari, visiting the Victoria Falls

They’re not called “hungry hungry hippos” for nothing. Despite their sleepy, sluggish appearance, hippos are renown for attacking boats, chomping through canoes, and killing over 150 people per year.

India, Taj Mahal

Okay so maybe you won’t find any in the Taj Mahal itself, but stray too far in any direction and you’re sure to bump into an elephant. With adults weighing up to 6 tons (approximately the same weight as a Smart Car dealership), elephants are the largest mammals on land. These unpredictable giants cause up to 500 fatalities per year, a tiny number when you consider how many pianos exist in the world.

Cambodia, Angkor Wat

Make sure to get your shots when visiting this natural Wonder of the World. While a mosquito bite won’t kill you directly, diseases like malaria, yellow fever, dengue fever, and the West Nile virus will. 3 million lives are taken each year by mosquitos, making these annoying little blood-suckers the world’s number one killer of humans, proving once again that size doesn’t always matter.

Happy trails! Or just come to Tremblant where it’s safe heh.
