Could you even get life insurance if you engage in high-risk activities?

Probably, though you may need a specialized carrier and policy to have those activities covered.

Lockheed does have special arrangements for life insurance for their test pilots, as getting regular life insurance would be difficult.

In the last 30 years, Lockheed has lost only two test pilots in crashes. One in 1993 and another in 2009.
