Overview

With just a little bit of imagination, creativity and ingenuity, almost anything can be made extreme. Publish an Instructable in any category that makes something bigger, faster, brighter, taller, louder, or, more awesome, crazy or wild - in short, more extreme and you’ll be eligible to win a Go Pro Hero 2 HD video camera, Goal Zero Nomad 7 Flexible Solar Panel, and more!

We’re looking for projects that relate to the standard extreme events like sky diving, drag car racing, and competitive eating. But we’re also looking to loosen the reigns a bit and explore some new extreme fields like extreme taxidermy, extreme canning and extreme home remodeling. If you do it, and it’s extreme, we want to hear about it!

Make sure to tell us in your intro step why your project is EXTREME!
