The Blackangel Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 I was a bullrider when I was a teenager. When I landed coming off a bull, I landed wrong and broke my collar bone. So that laid me up for most of the summer. I still went to rodeo's and the practice pen to watch at least. I just couldn't ride with a broken bone.

killamch89 Posted June 26, 2022 Share Posted June 26, 2022 When I was a kid I used to do inline skating and I've done Zip Lining before. I'll probably try skydiving and paragliding at some point as well since I do like extreme sports. To be honest, I'd also want to learn how to surf.

Clasher Posted July 14, 2022 Share Posted July 14, 2022 An extreme sport I enjoyed doing then was mountain biking because of the adrenaline rush it Comes with, we usually climbed up to the mountains and raced down against each other, the injuries you could get doing this can be devastating. The mountain is steep with a rough terrain if you don't focus hard enough and a very skilled biker you could bump into some Rock and roll several meters down incurring terrible injuries.

I haven't done mountain biking in over a decade but some of those tumbles were hilarious when I look back at them. The part that makes it the funniest is when you're sent flying off the bike into the air. All I hear is R.kelly's I believe I can fly during that moment and then you hit the ground and roll several yards and end up in so much pain 🤣 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's just like me XD or at least when I was younger. I've had many a nasty fall with a few broken bones but after I'm fully healed, that's me going even faster down the mountain!

I am still very surprised I didn't incurr any terrible fractures during my days of mountain biking just a few dislocations which heals very fast.

Justin11 Posted July 16, 2022 Share Posted July 16, 2022 I joined hosts of my peers in expert bike riding eight years ago. I didn't incur injuries because, I don't drive so rough, I try to slow down my speed and maintain my lane and not crossing over another lane carelessly. I didn't participate any racing competition using the bike or bicycle, all were just for the fun with my friends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killamch89 Posted July 19, 2022 Share Posted July 19, 2022 On a related note, I've seen some new extreme sports such as slap fighting where the objective on the game is to slap your opponent as hard as possible to knock them out. This gives a literal meaning to slapping the shit out of someone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin11 Posted July 19, 2022 Share Posted July 19, 2022 Their is nothing humans won't recreate just to make fun, money out of it. I don't find joy in this kind of event of 'slapping the hell out of your fellow to win the challenge, the sports game or challenge is weird to me, disgusting.

It is bizarre - I mean it lacks any creativity. Unlike this: This has to be the stupidest and simultaneously the most entertaining sport I've seen in a while. There was a guy literally doing Lui Kang bicycle kicks upside down. I'm just curious who comes up with these ideas for new sports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don't know the brain behind this kind of weird sports game, they just don't have any job to do that is useful, but just to invent sports game that will cause so much pains to it's players.

I'm pretty sure those fighters will have so many long-term arm and shoulder injuries just because the arm and shoulder is being pulled in all kinds of unnatural directions by each fighter.

Justin11 Posted November 2, 2022 Share Posted November 2, 2022 There's the mud fighting competitions in India and also one I once saw was people walking on hot coals and anyone who could endure till the end wins. I wouldn't wish to participate in any of these extreme sports for no reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
