Fatal! The most dangerous...

Time to be realistic.

Don't get me upset.:bigfrown :lol

Which is the most dangerous sport? Any reasons for your claims?
 
Nah! It's archery! Because if you get the people with the bows upset they know how to aim and shoot! :D haha jk actually archery is one of the safer sports but I had to say it.
 
American football? With all that padding and high tech helmets...dangerous? Pluease!

BASE jumping.... if you don't get slammed into the base, or have your chute get tangled... you could still slam into the ground.

The stats are hard to find but I've read that between 5 to 15 people get killed each year by BASE jumping... and that's not a very large field to begin with so I imagine that 5 - 15 is a fairly high percentage.

Perrine Bridge in Idaho is a popular BASE jumping site and I've lost track of how many have died there since I've moved to Idaho in 1994... more than several.

Not just fairly high - it's horrfying. :sad
I think it's the most dangerous.
 
How about ice hockey? Maybe not the most dangerous, but it's the first thing that I thought of.
 
I was thinking about this thread and out of curiosity, I checked out how many fatalities there were of BASE jumpers...

I found one list that had 183 names of people who died whilst BASE jumping, going back to 1981. It said it wasn't a complete list....
