Is ski jumping dangerous? Are there any special circumstances?

Skiing on the platform is dangerous. Professionals rarely fall, and ordinary people don't.

What is the origin of ski jumping? Long ago, it was a form of torture for Norwegian rulers to punish prisoners. In the process of punishment, the prisoner's foot was wrapped in a wooden board and pushed down from the snow-capped mountain, allowing it to slide freely. Then when prisoners pass the cliff, they will fall into the canyon, so if any prisoners die without such punishment, they can be released. So this sport originated in Norway was originally a form used by Norwegian rulers to punish sinners. Gradually, with the development of time, such punishment has also become a sport. It can be said that this sport requires high physical quality of athletes, and also has a good sense of balance and strength control. So many people like this sport until now, because it can also be said that this sport is an extreme sport. Jumping from a very high place requires high strength of the whole person's lower limbs, otherwise a fracture is likely to occur.

Is ski jumping dangerous? It will be dangerous, so many people who ski on the platform will take some protection and safety measures. Many athletes have to do balance training and platform jumping since childhood. On the one hand, it can make them accept high-altitude platform practice faster than ordinary people. On the other hand, I also exercised my balance ability from an early age to ensure that I can make all kinds of competitive movements when skydiving and skiing. I have to admit that many platform skiers will lower the platform height and train step by step. Like many professional ski platforms seen on TV, the athletes in them are very experienced. So they seldom fall and get hurt in the competition.

Skiers can prevent the risk of falling by reducing the skiing distance. When skiing for a long distance, its own impact is very strong. Once you accidentally fall, it will do some damage to your bones and other aspects of your body. Therefore, reducing the skiing distance can make them more suitable for the competition venue. The coach is used to it and will gradually strengthen the skiing distance in the later training.
