Love. The loser ends up with a broken heart.hypochondriac said:
That was just the first thing that popped into my
head when I saw the title for some reason.
I don't really think of love as a sport. Though some do I guess.

Auto Racing has to be up there. Even though those cars are suppose to be built with all these safety gadgets in them those drivers are going extremely fast and just one mistake could be a disaster.

Especially if, or when, you take one right on the button - -doesn't hurt at all for a few minutes - -until you "wake up".

Bull Riding or Bartending, try to get life insurance if you do either one.

I believe swimming claims more lives in America then any other recreational sport.
The list below is a global ranking of sports risk factors, injuries and deaths.

That's an interesting list. The number 1 most deadly is one I've never heard of-
Wingsuit flying
Somehow, it makes me want to laugh.

I hope those are parachutes on their backs.

Interesting choice of words.I somehow knew this one would pop up! True story!
Due to personal reasons, I'd have to say football. My g-nephew got hurt badly on the same leg (twice) last year and required two major surgeries to repair the damage on his ligaments/bones. Being the star football player, the other teams were out to get him. I cry every time I think of that period of time in his life. He is unable to participate in sports any longer due to the damage to his leg. He wanted to play football this year and even went up to sign up ... when suddenly Coach Beza (his mother) showed up and told him he was not playing football. I love him with all of my heart and it breaks my heart that he can't participate in any sports. He'll always be my baby. By the way, he had hoped to get a scholarship to an university and play baseball. Instead he will be attending nursing school to receive a BSN. 
Here he is celebrating his birthday with a swimming pool birthday party. He grew up too fast.
