Participation in extreme sports and activities is a highly personal decision, with some individuals finding them to be thrilling and exhilarating, while others choose to avoid them entirely. A recent survey conducted in December 2022 in the United States explored public opinion on the safety of extreme sports and found that 34 percent of respondents believed that they were always dangerous. However, the survey also revealed that just over half of respondents believed that extreme sports could be safe if done correctly.
