Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: So maybe if you're a newer parent like me and Kristen,
- 0:02Speaker 1: we're kind of new parents, you may be planning to
- 0:04Speaker 1: steer your children towards a sport that isn't as dangerous.
- 0:07Speaker 2: But we look, they're all somewhat dangerous in different forms.
- 0:10Speaker 1: Yeah, but people online are talking about unexpectedly dangerous sports.
- 0:15Speaker 1: Chess chess, oh my fingernails, Chess is not one of them.
- 0:22Speaker 1: But water polo is number one, And I don't understand that.
- 0:26Speaker 1: Is it the drowning aspect or I guess is it
- 0:29Speaker 1: more physical than I really?
- 0:30Speaker 3: I think it's really physical heads and stuff. Yes, I
- 0:33Speaker 3: think you kind of crashed into each other there.
- 0:35Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean this one's a no brainer.
- 0:37Speaker 1: Darts, Oh, wrong place, wrong time, be careful, Sumo wrestling,
- 0:44Speaker 1: which I don't think we're gonna be steering.
- 0:45Speaker 2: Our kids towards that. Okay, good idea, but that's very dangerous. Cheerleading,
- 0:51Speaker 2: Sure that makes sense.
- 0:52Speaker 3: Yeah, you could get hurt.
- 0:53Speaker 1: Thrown in the air, there's a lot you have a

- 0:58Speaker 1: a war. I don't get that one.
- 1:00Speaker 2: Oh, just let go no time.
- 1:04Speaker 3: There's some determination there. It might not just let it go,
- 1:07Speaker 3: or you might pull something just trying not to let
- 1:09Speaker 3: it go.
- 1:10Speaker 2: But that's our question.
- 1:12Speaker 1: What sport is more dangerous than you than you realize?

- 1:22Speaker 3: playing softball because I was I was waiting to catch.
- 1:28Speaker 3: I was at second base and the ball was beheaded
- 1:31Speaker 3: towards me, and I was like, my arms were up
- 1:33Speaker 3: to catch it, and this kid much bigger than me, oh,
- 1:37Speaker 3: running really hard to hit second and he went boof,
- 1:40Speaker 3: like right into my stomach to take me out.
- 1:43Speaker 2: So who was safe?
- 1:45Speaker 3: And who was out? But I ended up at like
- 1:47Speaker 3: get the nurses off?
- 1:48Speaker 2: Really?
- 1:49Speaker 3: Oh, I was sick.
- 1:50Speaker 2: Yeah. Did you play any sports besides softball?

- 2:14Speaker 3: loved tennis. I love watching it going to it, and
- 2:18Speaker 3: I tried, and it's just I can't connect a ball
- 2:21Speaker 3: and whether it's baseball or softball and a bat or
- 2:24Speaker 3: a tennis racket, my brain just doesn't want to do it.
- 2:27Speaker 2: Pickleball. Maybe you and I should take tried pickleball.
