sorry but courage? get real man i wouldnt say you have to be courageous to play aussie football. also im pretty sure good vision applies to basically every sport.
to who was saying corss country should be up there i strongly disagree. Although i said( and i still stand by it) that you cant really make a list like this because the requirments for one sport can be the total opposite of another sport so you cant really say One is the toughest. BUT croos country takes endurance, thats it, you dont need power, good coordination( spelling?), agility, strength etc..... like you just need to be able to run along distance without growing tired. I used to run crosscountry and know how hard it is but compared to sports like football or rugby where you need quick thinking, good hand eye, speed, power, strength and endurance, you cant really compare that to corss country.
and about this thread i think we should stop arguing about what sport should be in first, lets face it we all think the sport(s) we play should be at the top so maybe we can leave it at the fact that this list is fucking dumb and all sports are hard in there own aspects.
are you being sarcastic? how is doing a trick, and then resting. and then doing a trick and repeating make it the toughests sport? yes it it technicall and extremly hard, but this is "toughest sport" not most technical. even in competitions skateboarding is only a few minutes long.
but i'm suprised i didnt see anything about dirtbikes on that list?
MX is crazy, its fifteen minutes straight of maximum heartbeat. then you walk into the world of offroad racing:
and then theres Erzburg. both these races will beat you into submission.
but to be honest. each sport has something hard about it, its really tough to rank them and i think espn did a pretty good job with the system they used, even though it is flawed in some respects.
if you took a major league pitcher and 1000 people off of the street no one could hit a single pitch.
its completly different from rec baseball to pro and the pros are damn good at what they do
