    My son does this. I flag at the races sometimes. Last time I flagged 2 kids were mercy flighted out in 2 separate crashes. Been to the hospital a couple of times with him. He loves racing but I hope he finds a safer sport.

    It has been some time since I last contributed to this thread. After all, there can be only so many crazy-assed sports out there to report, right?

    Looks like I missed one: Tacraw. Played in Thailand, it's basically volleyball.



    But you can';t use your hands.
    I suspect these guys practise Tacraw by kickboxing in their spare time.

    At the end the players look to the camera and declare something or other "Faad!". My own thoughts were a four-letter word beginning with F too.

    classic moto on a 73 honda 350xl is pretty nuts man! iv done it once on my 02 CR250R
    and that wasnt so much my flavor of racing. i cant imagine trying to get an old bike slowed down enough to make that first corner with the brakes they had on the older bikes. the way my luck goes, the front drums would of been full of mud and i would of flown off the track and into a tree or some other hard non forgiving object right off the start
    another good crazy motor sport would have to be FMX guys..i mean you have to be a little off your rocker to want to take a 250lb bike and do double back flips...i must say it is def fun to watch those guys when they are on top of the thier game

    I think this one is awesome, but these guys are only the couple of happy few. The ones who are truly master in their art. Interestingly, much of what they do is also found in ninpo, though generally not practiced to this degree anymore

    This next one are the 99.9% of the guys who think they are on the same level and burn their wings when they try to fly too high

    I started watching that second one....I can't. I had to switch it off. It makes ME hurt just watching that.

    The first one is pretty good.
