There are people who watch NASCAR just for the crashes, and people who watch hockey just for the fights. It's something about human nature.

Anyway, figure skaters (and other athletes) know and understand the risks that they take. They determine that these risks are worth the joy that they otherwise find in the sport. That makes this situation different from, say, an accident or an instance wherein someone is inflicting harm upon another.

It's still an accident.

It's an accident, but it's something that's expected as a part of the activity.

I have no expectation of faceplanting when I'm walking down the hall from my bedroom to the kitchen. I do, however, have a reasonable expectation of faceplanting when I'm engaging in a sport in which faceplanting is common.

So you feel no sympathy for someone who gets hurt just because they knew it was a possibility? It's a possibility I could get into a deadly car accident every time I drive. Does that mean people should get enjoyment out of my tragedy?

Hmm.

No, they shouldn't. You are right.

My apologies.

You do realize people die in these accidents right? Today in ski cross there were two bad falls in back to back races. It wasn't funny, it was horrifying. It's double horrifying when you remember that in a training run for the same race a few days ago a skier needed emergency spinal surgery.

Anyone watching these sports hoping to see falls need help because there's something wrong with them.

Yeah, I've realized that my thinking on this was incorrect. I was wrong. My apologies.
