Are you talking about the version where they use roosters?

I saw them kill a few Norwood supporters hearts last year.

Yes, you need to be careful near those aggressive Roosters...

Not a patch on cat juggling.

I've long said I think horse racing is up there as the most dangerous sport - Sitting up front with 10 tonne of animal right up your clacker would require a shedload of bravery.

Whilst the deaths have been bad, so too have many that survived (Scott Leckey, Tye Angland, Libby Hopwood etc) with permanent life-altering injuries.

Jockeys, and harness racing drivers have very dangerous professions
Think of it this way, in what other job does an ambulance follow you ?

I was going to add “journos” Kane Cornes & Tom Morris to this but then remembered they actually chase the ambulance...

Road cyclists decending down mountains at 100kph with just Lycra to protect them, amazing there isn't more crashes and deaths.

Ice Hockey looks a bit scary! I was happy playing Field Hockey at School as it looked safer than Aussie Rules.
