Dale Earnhart crashed because he was enjoying his burger

Football is a sport asking a lot on your heart. Most players die because of a small deficiency.
I fear that players of american sports don't run enough (barely 500 m per match for american footie or baseball) to die like this
Jordan Clark
It happened once in the NFL, another Heart attack

Tyler Mitchell
few neck injuries in the nfl
Robert Fisher
in high school football about 10 or 20 kids die every year. usually because of poor technique which is why you rarely ever see it in the pros.
Adam Cooper
some guy in college basketball died from a heart thing because his legs weren't able to support his upper body
Sebastian Thomas
Check out old American football formations
Joshua Collins
footballers die because there are thousands of clubs playing every single week of the year. Chances are some poor bastard will trigger his bad heart.
In handegg there are only a few hundred teams playing including college and they only play for a few months each year.
Evan Long
Not in pro or college, but high schoolers die all the time, usually because they had a previously unknown medical condition
Henry Clark
Most high school deaths are from heat strokes. There's always at least a few a year.
Parker Lee
Pretty sure back in the 50's or something there was a baseball player that took a pitch to the face and died from brain trauma.
Joseph Wilson
Owen Cooper
Oh, that's sounds kinda hot.
Oliver Jackson
from all the blowjobs they give?
Nathaniel Hall
He didn't die but he probably wishes he did
Justin Gonzalez
That looks extremely painful.
Ryan Phillips
Drew Bledsoe almost died, it was God's will to bring Brady out
Jackson Reed

Angel Martin
He's a big guy
David Barnes
it's usually kids who die probably because it's just a much larger sample size. As said our sports are less taxing on the heart so the biggest risks in all our sports aside from basketball probably is blunt trauma.
In baseball one major leaguer was killed by a ball to the head, kids most common death is getting hit in the chest I think.
Austin Peterson
Hank Gathers died in a college basketball game due to a heart condition. I think he is 1 of 2 players ever to lead the country in scoring and rebounding in the same season
Gabriel Wright
corey stringer died from heat stroke
reggie lewis collapsed on the court died later
Ian Hughes
This
>Cleveland Indian
>night game (dusk)

>couldn't see the pitch coming for his head
That's how the rule came to be for a rotation of fresh baseballs
Ryder Price
How long did boreball games last when they used only one ball?
Cameron Mitchell
they were a lot shorter back in the day because the offensive talent was severely lacking.
Daniel Gomez

high intensity workload (american football) puts more of a strain on your heart than light jogging
Ayden Parker
But footballers do more than light jogging

Angel Ross
Sure, so many more short distance sprinters die as opposed to long-distance runners.
Isaiah Ward
There's been many deaths in hockey. Also, a couple occasions where throats were sliced, but they survived.

>kids most common death is getting hit in the chest I think
Correct. HS boreball coach here, it doesn't help that the automated external defibrillators are expensive as fuck, especially for small, rural and poor schools. If a kid gets hit hard in the chest it causes commotio cordis. In my state, there is usually at least 1 death a season.
