More than a quarter also did not believe they were fit enough to attempt their ultimate goal and 12 percent confessed that had no ambitions at all.

Nearly half also realised that they have to be more adventurous to achieve their ambitions.

A spokesperson from Helly Hansen told The Daily Express: 'It is fantastic to see that so many people still have a passion for taking to the outdoors in order to experience new challenges.

'But it is a real shame to see that some may not achieve lifelong ambitions because of a lack of faith in their own ability.

'We are only too aware of the positive mental effects and increased confidence associated with physical activity in an outdoor environment.

'Setting yourself a yearly goal can be a great motivator, whether your goal is to run a marathon, climb a mountain or simply improve your general health and well-being.'

英国媒体最新发布了普通人临终前最想做的50件事调查榜单，观赏世界七大奇迹、去非洲狩猎旅行、以及与海豚一起游泳均榜上有名。

不过，遗憾的是，调查人员发现大多数成年人仅仅会实现其毕生愿望中的五个。

许多人觉得自己没时间进行这些体验，也有些人承认要么身体不适要么不善冒险，还有的担心会受伤。

在这份“临终遗愿清单”上位居前五位的分别是：成为百万富翁、进行环球旅行、观赏北极光、爬上中国的万里长城以及还清房贷。
