Funambulism

Funambulism is a word that means “walking on a tightrope”. While there may be many ways to describe the notion of walking through the air, balanced precariously on only a rope or wire, I don’t think “fun” is one of them.

In fact, the idea that the word “fun” appears in this “ism” is quite contrary to most people’s idea of fun.
