What is the most dangerous event in the Winter Olympics?

Athletes from all over the world will participate in dozens of events in the Winter Olympics. If someone asks which event is more dangerous, it can only be said that it is quite dangerous. Even the ice dance events that we think are unlikely to be damaged are terminated every year because of the athletes' take-off and action mistakes, which lead to the shift of the center of gravity when the skates touch the ice instantly. However, if you have to rank the degree of danger of the project, the following three events are expected to enter the top three risk factors:

First, snowboarding

This conclusion is not given out of thin air. According to the statistics of previous Winter Olympics, the number of injured people in the snowboarding obstacle chase event ranks first in all events. The rule of this competition is that in the process of chasing each other, athletes still have to complete various difficult movements in the air, land smoothly after completing these movements, and then continue to slide on the snow at high speed. Due to the short competition time, players are required to have skills and speed within the specified time, which may cause even masters to make mistakes due to various factors, leading to bruises and direct injuries to athletes.

Second, the steel sleigh

This event is called prone sledding. There is a sprint stage in this project, which requires athletes to push the sled, push their feet hard to generate acceleration, and then quickly lie on the sled, with their bodies in a prone state and their chins about 3 cm off the ground. Then adjust the direction through various parts of the body. You know, at this time, the dive speed of the sled can reach 140 km per hour. As you can imagine, in such a state of high-speed movement, if you don't grasp the direction well and your head collides with other objects, you may have the risk of breaking your neck on the spot. Therefore, this project is a great test for athletes' reaction and improvisation ability. Making no mistakes is the basic principle of this movement. It is precisely because this sport is too thrilling, the injury rate is accompanied by the severity of disability and other factors that it was twice disqualified from participating in the Winter Olympics, and it was not until 2002 that the winner was decided in the Winter Olympics. Only in this way can we have a chance to see this performance full of speed and passion at the Beijing Winter Olympics.

Third, ski jumping.

It is nerve-racking for a person to jump off the fifth floor, and it is necessary to complete all kinds of difficult movements in the air. The key is that after a few moves, most people must be confused, and the athletes have to keep the skateboard falling smoothly on the snow. Imagine that if the athlete's speed, height or aerial movements are deviated, it is very likely to bring unimaginable consequences.

Of course, the reason why the Winter Olympics can attract so many people's attention is also brought by these adventure sports. People can see the perfect combination of strength and beauty, wisdom and skill through the dangerous performances of athletes who challenge the limits. Thanks to every athlete for their hard work, I wish them a smooth game and peace for everyone.
