Since human living consciousness is free from limitations of logic and morality, it can generate not only innovations in science and art, but also behaviour incompatible with requirements of social reality, as well as behaviours that can threaten the survival of living consciousness itself. The problem raised in this chapter is the analysis of causes of one phenomenon of this darker side of living consciousness—the phenomenon of playing with death. Metaphysically, the phenomenon elucidates a new property of living consciousness—the vital need for permanent activation and saturation with exciting internal or external stimuli. When internal stimulation is impoverished, the attempts to replace it with external simulation could lead to extremely dangerous activities.
