  1. The longer you look, the funnier it gets. See playground-related injuries, older than 65

  2. More people are getting hurt fishing than playing hockey. What a world lol.

  3. *chuckles* I’m in danger

    (Cycling, 25 to 64 ; albeit not in US)

  4. In this graph: Popularity of sports by age, slightly skewed by risk of injury.

  5. Every day I take my moped to the beach to have a picnic and wonder why Apple watch doesn’t give me the day’s Rings.

  6. I have to wonder if the surfing/water skiing is low in part because if you get seriously hurt in those situations you drown, where a similar injury on land would only be an injury.

    I’m thinking broken leg/arm sort of thing.

  7. Fishing > hockey and boxing.

    It makes sense when you think about it. More people do it, and I assume it’s mostly injuries from boat fishing, where the boat itself is the danger.

    The 25-65, should be broken out to 2-3 different groups.

    Also, GenX still trying to skate. Just stop… It’s over.
