Sure, but they are not an integral part of flying, unless you fly specifically

There are probably a few pilots who do things in the air for the
thrill of it. And there are some stunt pilots who do it for pay
or to win prizes. But as the old pilots' saw goes, "There are old
pilots and there are bold pilots, but there are no old, bold
pilots."

But there are plenty of undesired sensations in flying even for

How many? Two? Four? A dozen?

They don't always identify themselves, but eventually their names tend
to appear in NTSB reports.
