Some people think that dangerous sports should be banned, while others think people should be free to choose.Discuss both views and give your opinion.
Playing a certain
sport
depends on a persons interest and ability to pursue what he or she likes. Some argue whether a sport
which puts you in danger should be allowed or should there be a ban on such
an activity. This
essay will discuss both sides of the coin, while I will present my point of view.
People play a sport
because it not only keeps them engaged it is also
beneficial in offering psychological satisfaction when you achieve the target you have set for yourself. Some games also
help people get together and compete against each other. In my opinion, any sport
which is harmful and detrimental to your health and your well-being should have proper checks and essential measures imposed by the government to avoid any mishaps. For instance
, although
sky diving or bungee jumping is viewed quite dangerous a sport
or activity to pursue, good and correct safety measures in place to make it extremely safe and enjoyable. It not only gives a sense of achievement to the participants, but in most cases it makes it to people's bucket-list as one of the things they want to achieve in their lifetime. While on the other hand
, the yearly sport
like
, running with the bulls which is famous in Spain, can be extremely life threatening to both the people participating as well as the animal involved. Thought there are numerous deaths every year, there is the euphoria individuals experience while running with the bulls. Another example is bullfighting, which is now banned in most parts of Spain. Bull fighting was part of Spanish tradition for centuries, but since it puts the animal in danger though the audience enjoyed it, the government took essential measures and now the bull rings are converted to the exhibition grounds in places like Seville and Barcelona.
In conclusion, personally I would strongly advocate that there is a check or restriction on the kind of Suggestion
likes
sport
which puts lives in danger. Any sport
which involves animals should be strictly banned.Submitted by Suneela Phatak on
