What about Nascar, dead in an instant, so i'd say BB is not the most harmful.

Sad truth is it's pretty average, your risk of heart disease and shit is way the fuck higher, but your less likely to destroy your knee's and back as fast. Even little twink soccer players fuck up there knees and ankles by the time there 25.

first of all BB is an "activity " not a sport. As far as an immediate death risk, F1 holds the crown. Long term damage football.

nope but can happen anytime. that whole weekend was cursed between him and ratzenberger. If you look at the older f1 cars they had basically no safety features compared to today, but those cars were beast. More pure power than the ones today. The red bulls are straight beast though, I have to give them props.

BB is spiritually damaging for taking so many drugs, but football is even more stupid, The average NFL player who plays for more than 5 years has a life expectancy of 55 years.

None of the cars have an avantage over the others today---technically, it's still Ferrari, Mercedes, Mclaren, that are the beasts, not Red Bull. And the cars of the today are far more downforce driven. The new Pirelli tires don't last long, so the teams and drivers have to have strategies on how to make them last.
The new cars put their power down better than those old ones, plus better brakes, better aero, and more carbonfiber. Plus the drivers are in better shape. It was still in the late 70s early 80s that you could see an F1 engine just sitting out in the open---now, you'll almost never get a glimpse of the engine.

Boxing.

With gloves it's even more dangerous than bareknuckle boxing.

In bareknuckle boxing there is the risk of breaking your hand, so hits to the head and face are less. Fighters try to use their blocking elbows and head to break the opponents hand. As a result, the fighting is slower paced with less head shots.

Gloves were added to make the fights faster and more exciting.
The point of the gloves was to protect the fighters hands so they wouldn't have to worry as much about breaking them

As a result there are far more headshots that hit a lot harder than if bareknuckle which made for more knockout blows and a better spectacle for the gamblers and spectators.

This leads to far more impacts on the head which cause the brain to bounce around in the skull and can lead to mild concussions and more long-term damage.
Hard impact which causes the brain to twist from the brain stem and this causes trauma and can possibly kill a person. It is also possible for the stem to detach if the brain twists too much.

The retina of the eyes can also get detached from a hard blow leading to partial or full blindness. Joe Frazier fought much of his career with only half vision in one of his eyes.

Some older boxers become 'punch drunk', they slur a little and speak slowly due to mild brain damage from trauma to the head.

Natural bodybuilding isn't harmful in the least, in fact, quite the opposite. I haven't the slightest clue wtf you're talking about.

Synthol ruined BB.  It was "pure" until Synthol came around and ruined it. 


Now ANYONE can look like Mr. Olympia just by injecting oil into their muscles (except their forearms, I've done some research into it and it seems that most youtube comments mention something about how synthol doesn't work in the forearm muscles, so I guess you still have to train forearms....unless you don't mind having small-ish forearms that is). 

It cheapens the whole sport.  Before synthol, HARD WORK was king.  Now the needle wears the crown.

first off,bodybuilding aint an activity its a sport,baddest fuckin sport in the world,and no its not the most dangerous,although some of the ATHLETES have done some stupid things that were danderous.i would say the nfl,hockey and pretty much every event at the x games is more dangerous,big air you could die in an instant and some of these are 14,15 year old kids.

Putting on a thong and flexing your muscles isn't gay at all....if anything it shows people how much of a man you are. lol.

I'm serious though...I think that was the point when it first started.

Its the people who follow it who make it gay...the "fans" of the "sport". I'm not an expert on homosexuality (queue the gay jokes lol) but I think gays are attracted to masculine gays not the more faggy ones. That's what a muscular man is SUPPOSED to represent...masculinity.

Trying to score "touchdowns" or "goals" on another set of guys seems a little gay and childish to me. But to each his own I guess...

When you're on that stage doing battle...it's something you can't understand unless you've been there.  

No one else goes through what we do to prepare for game day.  No one suffers like we suffer.  No one works like we work.  BB is harmful, yes...but if you can make it to that stage, you know you've been to hell and back...you've toed the line between physical perfection and failing organs.  

Yeah it's harmful, but not nearly as harmful as the fucking warrior that walks out on stage come contest day.
