What would aliens think if they leaned we evolved fear as a survival mechanism, but we intentionally seek out situations that trigger our fear response, for fun?

Horror movies, extreme sports, thrill-seeking, it’s all weird.

Edit
Changed the title and added an extra line to make it clear I’m talking about the fear response, and not specifically about extreme sports

    I imagine that’d be just as fucked up to aliens:

    Their brain injects feelgood drugs to reward them for being scared??? and they got addicted?!?!
