Extreme sports such as sky diving and skiing are very dangerous and should be banned. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this view?

Some
people
believe that sporting activities like diving and skiing should be outlawed because they pose a significant risk to the participants’ personal
safety
. I completely disagree with
this

’s right to free will. In my opinion, these
sports
are not as dangerous as many
people
might think. Since there is risk involved in every sport, appropriate precautions have been taken to reduce it.
For instance
, footballers have suffered disabling injuries during matches despite
this
sport being regarded as safe. Extreme
sports
have a certain age group and prerequisites that have been instituted to promote
safety
. Beginners or freshers have to enrol in certain registered clubs

measures are being improved daily to promote

.
However
like any
sports
, accidents do happen but should not result in these
sports
being mislabeled as dangerous.
Furthermore
, banning these
sports
would be very difficult, if not impossible.
Firstly
, these
sports
are practised in remote secluded areas away from where the authorities have immediate access. These areas have been chosen as they have ample space and do not pose a threat to the general public as they are far away from dwellings.
Secondly
,
people
should be autonomous and be able to choose a sport they like. I believe that prohibiting
people
would be infringing on
this
right. In conclusion, extreme
sports
have been misrepresented as dangerous and
thus
, should not be banned. Several
safety
regulations are being constantly reviewed and
people
have every right to choose any recreational activity they prefer.
