European Extreme
adj. The state of something being so radical and potentially dangerous that it exceeds the rest of the world's standards of "extremeness." The modifier, "European" refers to the higher, snobbier, level of sophistication which comes with the existing extreemeness. The phrase was coined by the video game Metal Gear Solid 3: Subsistence, where the European Extreme mode was an additional difficulty level unavailable in the United States on the release of the first version of Metal Gear Solid 3.

Person B: You don't know the half of it, he runs 20 miles in the morning, lifts for 3 hours in the afternoon, and runs another 20 miles in the evening. He does this even in the dead of winter.
Person A: Shit, that routine is European Extreme man.
