“Dangerous Sports and Activities”

Why do you think some people are attracted to dangerous sports or other dangerous activities? Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.
-------------------------------------------------------------------

Numerous people play dangerous sport every day. In the process they suffer severe injuries, pain and even trauma for that matter. Those players in some cases may even suffer temporary partial or permanent partial or total disablement. Even then players volunteer for the risk of life.

The main reason behind this as I strongly feel is that players who belong to economically backward class and unprivileged class or they are financially unsound or they suffer severe poverty, opt for such dangerous sports like Boxing, Motor race, Bull fighting and many more. Those players are simply lured by money name and fame.

Secondly, school students from richer social strata, who are weak at studies and have turned out to be mischievous and vagabonds are forced by the school authorities to play dangerous sports, on the plea that playing will improve an individual students' character and personality, but in fact they increase the risk of injury to the student. In fact the objective of schools behind forcing students into dangerous activities is their own selfish motive of the institution’s own reputation name and fame.

Those dangerous sports are nothing but form violence. Boxing is a perfect example. The sight of two men or even women for that matter, bleeding with faces ripped open, trying to obliterate each other is barbaric. Other sports, such as American football or rugby, are also examples of barely-concealed violence.

In conclusion the main motivation behind playing dangerous sports is Money, Name & Fame to the people of economically backward and underprivileged class and in other group of weak students who turn to be mischievous and vagabonds. In addition unemployed youth is no exception to this activity.
