Is travel insurance necessary?

I’m heading to America. Doin my own travelling. Catching trains/buses/planes etc. I’m white water rafting and skydiving whilst there. I think that makes me uninsurable. So is it really necessary for me to have insurance? Will it hinder my trip in any way to not have any? Eg. Airport regulations etc.

YES.

you get sick with travel insurance you get treated at no cost.
you enter the US with travel/medical insurance you might get in.

you travel without insurance you either pay $1000′s or get no treatment.
You enter the US with without insurance you will be sent back by DHS/Immigration.

you can get extreme sports insurance but it costs more and YOU really MUST get it (if you were on a package you cant book without insurance on these types of trip)

also you will NOT be allowed into the US if you cannot prove you have adequate medical insurance! &/or $100,000′s in the bank!
