activities that involve risk of catastrophic injury, including permanent
disability, paralysis and even death, as well as severe social and economic

hereinafter referred to as lessees, from any and all liability to each of the
undersigned, his or her heirs and next of kin for any and all claims, demands,
losses or damages on account of injury, including death or damage to property,
caused or alleged to be caused in whole or in part by the negligence of the
