An extreme sport (also called action sport and adventure
sport) is a popular term for certain activities
perceived as having a high level of inherent danger,
and that are counter-cultural. These activities
often involve speed, height, a high level of physical
exertion, and highly specialized gear or spectacular
stunts.
The definition of an extreme sport is not exact
for example, although studies show that (road) cycling
ranks as the sport with the highest rate of injury,
it is not considered an extreme sport because it
is not counter-cultural. The term's origin is also
unclear, but it gained popularity in the 1990s when
it was picked up by marketing companies to promote
the X Games... |
