  1. gymnastics is awesome

    Not to mention theres not mats on the tracks or courts 

  2. its not the most dangerous sport. It’s gymnastics. You can split the beam,
    and break you neck. And you can break you back in the pit even by bending
    to far. Do a back handsprings can hurt your head! Bars rip your hands! And
    vault can break your hand or arm! You can LAND ON YOUR NECK on the tramp
    and be sent to the HOSPITAL! So cheerleading is just a stupid way to get
    girls “popular”. Gymnasts don’t want to be popular in school. And you dont
    WEAR SHOES! So break you toes, you’re out for a week or two. 

  3. plus gymnasts have only ONE or TWO spotters not lile A BILLION to catch a
    person

  4. Okay at 1:30 this really bugs me. Like 75% of cheer injures are from
    stunting!!!!

    yay yay I’m a Elite cheerleader

  6. CheerTalkWithCarly

    Boys cheer too 

  7. I am just saying we out our life out there for 2 minutes and 39 seconds
    because it is our dream every athlete wants to be the best at what they do
    same thing here 

  8. AND I bet most cheerleaders cant do a back tuck on the beam and do a back
    handspring onto vault with a full twist STICKING it for 4 seconds and a
    back hipcircle on bars with a front hipcircle and a kip

  9. Girls play hockey too
    Duh

  10. To u people that say cheer isnt a sport “a sport is an activity involving
    physical exertion and skill in which an individual or team competes against
    another or others for entertainment”

  11. What about horseback riding? I think like 200 people die a year from
    horseback riding. 

  12. cheerleading is the most dangerous sport. #2014 u don’t think cheer is a
    sport. go to one of our practices and watch us crying the pain of
    conditioning, falling out of stunts, being fallen on, landing wrong in a
    tumble. im a flyer, base, back, and front, I have gotten more concussions
    and sprained stuff than anyone on the whole squad, in their whole life.
    imagine being 10 ft high and falling spraining yur shoulder and nearly
    dying cuz u hit your temple. imagine having to explain to your mom why your
    missing all your teeth. imagine lifting 100 pound people in the air. so yea
    sure cheer isn’t a sport and all we do is be prepy. my whole squad is
    either emo, or a tom-boy. u know what hurts the most in cheer is how no one
    is even paying attention.

    The most dangerous sport is equestrism.

  14. the fact that states don’t recognize this as a sport is ridiculous. i mean
    seriously, these girls and boys TRAIN everyday for hours just so that they
    can have the best two and a half minutes on the mat at competitions. Not
    only that, but sure we stunt and tumble and dance but we try our hardest at
    this sport no matter what is happening. If u get hurt u get back up, that’s
    how determined we are. to all of the people that don’t think cheer leading
    is a sport,1st of all the next time u want to say cheer isn’t a sport say
    it to my face and then go try and hold up a 95/100 pound girl who has to
    smile, switch legs, be flexible, stay balanced, and turn as much as she
    can in the air all while tightening her body to the point that it hurts
    then having to catch that girl so she doesn’t fall. number 2 i bet u
    couldn’t even make the team so talk to me again when u try out and don’t
    make it. and number 3 yes it is dangerous did u not just watch that video?
    if u did then u should also know that its not only dangerous for girls, its
    just as dangerous for guys. so don’t just assume that because they where a
    pretty uniform and make it look like that it’s soo easy that it is. it
    really isn’t. there is a reason that those uniforms are the way they are,
    not just because they look good. there is a reason that they put there hair
    up, not just to make themselves look even more “pretty”. there is always a
    reason. ALWAYS.

    Some schools cheer teams aren’t supplied with mats because it’s “not a
    sport” they’d have to purchase the mats themselves…
    My schools team has to fund everything themselves and that’s why it’s so
    expensive to do HS cheer at some places.

    I dont care its fun

    @Droolbaby so your saying because it’s not as easy as oh we got 10
    touchdowns we win its not a sport. This is a sport where it’s harder to
    win. It’s more than running a football from one end zone to another or
    harder to shoot a basketball in a hoop and get points that way. With this
    you have to impress other people and you have to be spot on or you get
    points docked. Just because your not able to tell how they are scored
    doesn’t mean you can use that as a reason there “not a sport.”

  18. Than an inch of a blade. No pads and you spin and jump everytime just
    waiting to fall on the worst thing to fall on in sports. I fell on my face
    and I blacked out. It takes skill, guts, determination, flexibility, and
    commitment. Cheer is just annoying. It gets serious when your flipping in
    air but I don’t see more danger in cheer than in figure skating.

  19. Boys are cheerleaders, saying Girls’ most dangerous sport: Cheerleading.
    Should be Most dangerous sport: Cheerleading And this is comming from a
    girl… Thumbs up if you agree!

    @gymnast71858 I’d LOVE to see you base or fly a rewind, ball up, switch
    up,bow and arrow, hold your leg up without your hands in a heel
    stretch,stick a stunt even if your bases barely have your foot because if
    you fall, that could cost your team a national title and money. Until
    you’ve actually DONE a level 5 or 6 stunt,then shut your mouth. We make it
    look easy. We had a high level gymnast on my open team, and most of the
    level 6 stunts we were doing, she was scared to do.

    um you do know wrestling is considered a sport in highschool right?
    Cheerleaders are gymnasts and it takes a lot of hard work and dedication to
    be a good cheerleader. Not everyone can walk in and poof be an amazing
    cheerleader. Also you are probably just upset because you cant do a quarter
    of what these girls and boys can do. You think they just stand off to the
    side and chant no these girls are being thrown between 30-50 feet in the
    air go look up competitive cheer and tell me thats not a sport

  22. I say that basketball,football,softball,etc. shouldn’t be a sport either ,
    it’s not in the olympics is it???????? Cheerleading is almost completely
    gymnastics!!!!!!

  23. Either way, not football mascots. My team in high school was all about the
    competitions, not so much the games. We usually dreaded games ’cause our
    school didn’t care about us even though we went to state every year. So we
    are not mascots for any sport, that’s what the actual school mascot is for.

    @Droolbaby I believe cheering is just as much a sport as dancing. I danced
    for 3 years and then i switched to cheerleading because i liked how it
    combined dancing, tumbleing and a few other things. PLEASE STOP
    STEROTYPING!!! I am an all star cheerleader and we dont even talk to
    football players unless we see them at school. There are different types of
    cheerleading. Do your homework if your going to fight with cheerleaders
    about cheerleading. In a few years cheering will be a sport.

  25. Tthe most dangerous sport is not gymnastics. PLZ STOP SAYING THAT
