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?
In
recent years, extreme sports have become increasingly popular, and some people
argue that governments should prohibit them. I completely disagree with the
idea that these sports are too dangerous, and I therefore believe that they
should not be banned.
In
my opinion, so-called extreme sports are not as dangerous as many people think.
All sports involve some element of risk, and there should always be clear
regulations and safety procedures to reduce the possibility of accidents.
People who take part in extreme sports are usually required to undergo
appropriate training so that the dangers are minimized. For example, anyone who
wants to try skydiving will need to sign up for lessons with a registered club,
and beginners are not allowed to dive solo; they must be accompanied by an
experienced professional. Finally, the protective equipment and technology used
in sports from motor racing to mountain climbing is constantly improving
safety.
While
I support regulations and safety measures, I believe that it would be wrong,
and almost impossible, to ban extreme sports. In the first place, we should all
be free to decide how we spend our leisure time; as long as we understand the
risks, I do not believe that politicians should stop us from enjoying
ourselves. However, an even stronger argument against such a ban would be the
difficulty of enforcing it. Many of the riskiest sports, like base jumping or
big wave surfing, are practiced far away from the reach of any authorities. I
cannot imagine the police being called to stop people from parachuting off a
mountain face or surfing on an isolated beach.
In
conclusion, I would argue that people should be free to enjoy extreme sports as
long as they understand the risks and take the appropriate precautions.
