INVOLVE RISKS AND DANGERS OF SERIOUS BODILY INJURY,
INCLUDING PERMANENT DISABILITY, PARALYSIS AND DEATH
("RISKS"); (b) these Risks and dangers may be
caused by my own actions, or inactions, the actions or
inactions of others participating in the Activity, the
condition in which the Activity takes place, or THE
NEGLIGENCE OF THE "RELEASEES" NAMED BELOW; (c)
there may be OTHER RISKS AND SOCIAL AND ECONOMIC LOSSES
either not known to me or not readily foreseeable at this

LOSSES, OR DAMAGES ON MY ACCOUNT CAUSED OR ALLEGED TO BE
CAUSED IN WHOLE OR IN PART BY THE NEGLIGENCE OF THE
RELEASEES OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING NEGLIGENT RESCUE
OPERATIONS; AND I FURTHER AGREE that if, despite this
RELEASE AND WAIVER OF LIABILITY, ASSUMPTION OF RISK, AND
INDEMNITY AGREEMENT I, or anyone on my behalf, makes a
claim against any of the Releasees, I WILL INDEMNIFY,
SAVE, AND HOLD HARMLESS EACH OF THE RELEASEES from any
litigation expenses, attorney fees, loss, liability,
damage, or cost which any may incur as the result of such
claim.
I HAVE READ THIS AGREEMENT, FULLY UNDERSTAND ITS TERMS,
UNDERSTAND THAT I HAVE GIVEN UP SUBSTANTIAL RIGHTS BY
SIGNING IT AND HAVE SIGNED IT FREELY AND WITHOUT ANY
INDUCEMENT OR ASSURANCE OF ANY NATURE AND INTEND IT TO BE
