Why Do We Love Dangerous Sports?

Dangerous, deadly and extreme sport offers the possibility of death or injury but usually has the ability to attract a large audience. The greater the risk, the larger the crowd. Extreme injury and death are often overlooked, beyond enjoyment of the fans.

Hal Marcovitz, veteran journalist, questions the public’s passion for dangerous and extreme sports and joins us to engage our listeners:

• What do death defying sports and their participatants have in common?
• Do you have to be crazy to run in front of a 1,500-pound bull?
• Why are we more aware of dangers in contact sports?
