“horse is a damn dangerouse sport your riding a 1,000 pound animal that in a blink of an eye rear up and crush you! this girl jessica forsyth got landed on by her horse and died istantly lets say you way 130 pounds the horse your riding ways 1,100 he doesn’t like what your doing up there who do you think will win?”
“ok, I’ve fallen off, again, recently and I had a really bad concussion and short term memory loss for several hours after. the horse wasn’t broke all the way, but I’m an advanced rider, so, she was cantering around, la la la la, then, oops I lost a stirrup I knew they were to long, then my friend steps in front of the horse to try to stop it, btw, I lost my other stirrup and the harmless little horsey is gallopin now, hello, arabian, so this is what happens in about 5 min of riding, when you take risks, but I love it, what happens in 5 min of cheer leadin? did you take my panties b****? then a stupid little cat fight over the lost panties, get real”
“okay, horseback riding is definitely the most dangerous! In the last year I’ve broken both my pinkies, in two different spots on each pinky. So that’s four broken bones, I almost broke my hip after I lost an iron and fell off. I was going to go over a triple and the first two jumps were like, 18 in(? ) and then the last jump was only 2ft but the horse refused and I landed ON THE JUMP! I could have been stepped on or broken my neck! Lets see here, I also broke both my thumbs and I almost broke my elbow once. And this is just lessons. Wait until I get my own horse=)Oh yeah I almost forgot, I’ve also been on a bucking horse, but I stayed on and the this past week I was cantering a green horse and then she took off galloping in the lesson ring and there were two beginners and another person on the horse that bucks in the ring with me and I just managed to swerve her to the side before crashing into the beginners(i was training this horse, my sis was on the bucking one). THAT COULD HAVE BEEN A DISASTER! p.s. I’ve also done gymnastics, not anywhere near as dangerous as horseback riding.”

Cheerleading
“I think that cheerleading is the most dangerous because we do all sorts of fancy jumps and stuff and one time I sprained my ankle really bad and I couldn’t play cheer for the rest if the game and I bet you 5,000,000,000,000,000 people die every year from cheerleading. Not just ten like other people think is a lot.”
“Ok, look , for all of the people out there that don’t see that cheer is the most dangerous sport need to have a reality cheak. Horse back ridding . . . your kidding right , mabey in bla bla land horse back ridding is the most dangerous sport but this reality and in reality cheer is the HARDEST and MOST DANGEROUS spot in the world. Some people just say " oh , yeah gymnastics is the hardest sport NOT hockey or anything else" when they haven’t even tryed that sport, but me. . . i have gone horse back ridding and it is NO WEAR even the SLITEST bit close to the hardest or most dangerous sport ever. I also done gymnastics and soccer when i was young and first of all i can’t belive that soccer is even on the list . . .3 words . . . peace of cak. Now i know that i haven’t tryed any other sports but just by what people say like " you only have a couple pads or " The ball weighs like 2 pounds and if it hits you it hurts and " ten people die each year from this sport" make me laugh so hard i start to cry and think in cheer you don’t have any pads at all , 50,000 people die each year NOT ten , and you don’t have a chance of a 2 pound ball hitting you . . . you have a chance of a hundred pound girl coming down on your neak from atleast 20 feat in the air then i know that cheer is the most dangerous sport in the world. :)”
“ok, anyone who doesn’t see that this is the most dangerous sport is freakin dumb. last year, I was doing a twist cradle and I fell on my head. this year, I can’t do cheering because one mistake could mess up my head and I could get brain damage. there are more than 50,000 deaths EVERY YEAR from cheering, and more than 500,000 injuries, AND 6,000 PARALYZED EACH YEAR!”

Lacrosse
“Okay listen, let’s back it up and think about the concept of lacrosse. In lacrosse you have a whole bunch of huge crazy guys running around with 6ft metal sticks trying to hit you in the stomach. You have no shin padding ( which are very vulnerable), no neck padding. All the pads are as light as possible. Lacrosse also involves a large rubber ball being flung at 90 miles per hour at you. Another point: the reason lacrosse has less deaths and injuries is because it has less people playing. Cheerleading has a gazillion girls playing and it’s all year round so you guys need to stop puting up all these hissy fits; I don’t horseback riding but I definitely agree that’s it’s one of the most dangerous sports, propably more so than lacrosse. Another thingis that, surprisingly, nobodys recorded the amount of deaths strangely enough.
Bottom line: lacrosse is hazardous and very very dangerous
Botoo”
“If that ball hits you it hurts. Period.”
“ha the balls are like 2lb and get thrown up to 90 mph”

Gymnastics
“I did gymnastics for 13 yrs. I had 2 compressed vertebras, a broken tailbone, broken toes and fingers, torn tendons in ankels and seperated shoulder. I was level 9 when I went to High school and would have gotten to Nationals in Uneven Bars if I hadn’t had done the vertebra issue. It is the most dangerous sport!”
“I was in gymnastics for 9 years and had many minor injuries, but also had some serious ones. Such a difficult sport, and super dangerous. When I was 14, I fractured my wrist so badly that they thought they were going to have to amputate it from my elbow down. Luckily, I managed to go through 3 emercency surgeries and come out of my 4 day hospital stay with my arm! I know a lady who had to have both knee caps replaced, due to all the damage from gymnastics over the years. I have weak wrists and knees now, but I’d do it all over again if I could! I recommend this sport for males and females. It teaches you discipline, balance, flexibility, coordination, team work, etc. It is demanding, but well worth it.”
“gymnastics can be dangerous but it can also be fun. I broke my shoulder and got back up and did the trick again.”

Soccer
“soccer is really dangerous. all you have is shin guards which don’t even give you much protection it still hurts extremely bad to be knocked in the shin. slide tackling is extremley dangerous and so are headers. soccer should at least be number 3 on the list.”
“go on youtube and you can find a lot of soccer deaths mostly from cardiac arrest. its one of the saddest things ever”
“Soccer is dangerous because you only have shin guards for protection”

Motocross
“either motorcross or bull riding. how would horse back riding be all that dangerous?”
“how is cheerleading more dagerous than motocross. try doing a double backflip 60 feet in the airand trying to throw a 250 pond bike around. in cheerleading you are 20 feet off the ground”
“no one has any idea
how physically and mentally
challanging motocross is until
the do it. controlling a 200-250 lbs. bike for 20 minutes straight
isnt easy!”

Hockey
“First of all, in hockey you slam people into walls. What could be more fun and dangerous at the same time.”
“haha, "i’m the best hockey player in the state... first year pee wee. "
anyways, hockey should definitely be ahead of lacrosse. hockey is a lifestyle, lacrosse is just what hockey players do in the off season.”
“fights

Football
“in this game you get hurt almost every time when something goes wrong you get hurt”
“I have played football for 6 years. In that time I have broken my arm 3 times broken 2 legs had numerous concussions 2 of them so severe I didn’t remember the hit. It is by far the most dangerous sport. Why else do they give so much padding”
“I PLAY FOOTBALL IT REALLY COULD HURT YOU IF YOU GET HIT HARD YOU COULD BREAK SOMETHING
YOU COULD REALLY GET HURT”

Rugby League
“LOLZ at Malorian, I agree, Soccer? Cheerleading? those are self inflicted injury sports. Soccer is so gay, they milk penalties like 6 year old girls. Cheerleading well, if your gonna get thrown around and no1 catches you, thats your teams fault. Soccer players need to harden the f*** up! Imagine them playing in a R/League game, they wouldn’t call fowl, theyd call 911! League is a rough game, but you get over the tackles and get on with the game. High tackles around the neck can be deadly, and yes your team mates can’t protect physically, they just want you to pass the ball to them, and carry on with the game. If you get smashed in a play, the game carries on and time will only be called if it is an illegal move. Great game to play/ watch. Only real men play this sport, the younger you play, the better you are at taking the hits. But the professional players are rugged as they come, nearly every player has a list of injuries theyve had in the past.”
“God, this list is pathetic. SOCCER IS NUMBER SIX!?!?!?! Are you kidding me? The only way people get hurt in soccer is if they dive incorrectly and end up twisting an ankle... oh NO!
I don’t exactly like playing or watching rugby, but I know for a fact it is tougher than soccer. It is basically football... with no pads. So:
rugby>soccer
rugby>football
rugby>lacrosse
rugby>hockey
rugby>gymnastics (people aren’t trying to kill you in gymnastics or cheerleading)
rugby>cheerleading
rugby>bull riding (it’s only for 8 seconds! )
rugby>horseback riding: you have to be more specific. Racing, I can understand. Anything else, no. Even in racing, though the injures are almost sure to happen and be terrible if you fall off... if you fall off. So don’t fall off.”
“It’s like football with no padding and much more aggressive positions. You end up doing the flips that you do in gymnastics but instead of landing someone pushes you.”
