Should Extreme Sport Be Banned Or Not?

Answer Question

Answer 1

If you ban all extreme sports, people will just ride down hills in shopping carts. You can't stop people from finding their adrenalin fix :)

Also you can discuss the morality of illegalizing something that (usually) can only hurt the person that decides to do it.

Answer 2

It depends on you, some of them are dangerous, but you have the choice. We are different mind, there are still people who like to play dangerous games or sports.

Answer 3

No, extreme sports should not be banned, there are many reasons why:

1. Extreme sports are a form of entertainment

2. They provide income for the participants, the organizers, and a bunch of people affiliated with these sports.

3. Extreme sports push boundaries, challenge us to test the limits and live life to the full!

But if you want to know what my favorite extreme sports are, they usually center around CARS! Rallycross is pretty big on my list, and there is NO WAY that sport should be banned.
