April 28, 200719 yr there is this new show on MTV called Scarred. it talks about how ppl like skateboarders and skaters and BMX'ers have these horrible crashes and stuff... they also show some pretty graphic injuries if ur into that. Check it out some time, it comes on at 9:30pm on tuesday nights (Eastern Timezone in US)
May 1, 200719 yr Why would people watch that? Would you watch a family's house get blown up and then get laughed at by teenagers? (Don't say yes, cause I would say yes too, just making a point :? )
May 1, 200719 yr I actually skateboard myself and do things as big or bigger than the people on Scarred. I hate the show, because it shows what could happen to me. :-w
May 4, 200719 yr Why would people watch that? Would you watch a family's house get blown up and then get laughed at by teenagers? (Don't say yes, cause I would say yes too, just making a point :? ) Someone's house being blown up has nothing to do with people suffering serious injuries. People work hard for years to buy houses. Someone simply getting an injury doing something that's considered dangerous is completely different. There's nothing humorus about someone losing years of hard work in an explosion. However, it is funny to watch people injure themselves doing things that are reckless to begin with. In other words, you made a bad comparison. OT: I think that the show is rather interesting to watch, pretty funny too. :-w
May 5, 200719 yr However, it is funny to watch people injure themselves doing things that are reckless to being with. Yup, skateboarding is SO reckless. You're basing your decision off people who can'y skateboard period. If you actually know how to skate, know how to fall, and know your limitations, it's nowhere near reckless. People who go into it thinking they won't get hurt is being stupid, not reckless. You should expect getting a bit banged up, and that isn't being reckless.

I quit skating about 1 year ago, had been for about 6 or 7 years before I quit. Now you say if you know how to fall, skating is nowhere near wreckless. I beg to differ. Yes, there is certain ways to fall in certain situations, but there is other times where you do not have enough time to react or there is not a good way to fall period. For example, say you are tailsliding down a 9-stair rail, your tail washes out and you are suspended in the air for about a half of a second...not enough time to react. You're basically screwed. OT: I really enjoy the show, it is quite entertaining to see other people hurting themselves quite badly. I say this because the people that are taping them are laughing their [wagons[ off. Awesome show in my book. \ =D> :thumbsup:
May 9, 200719 yr My god, some of that stuff I found very hard to watch. Especially when they do a nice slow motion replay. It was a good show, but, eek almost makes you sick. Two roads diverged in a wood, and I-I took the one less traveled by,And that has made all the difference.

Two roads diverged in a wood, and I-I took the one less traveled by,And that has made all the difference.
