no football isn't more dangerous then Cheerleading. (im going to probably get alot of critisism from all the guys out there for saying that) but it is true. cheerleading is very dangerous * when you tumble and are upside down in mid air relying on nothing but * how hard you pushed of your legs, feet, arms or hands * how fast you cant get yourself over * if you got yourself high enough * knowing that if you can't get your self over there is a huge chance of falling straight down on your head breaking your neck * or if you twist your arm on just a backhandspring it could mean a * broken arm * fractured wrist * messed up shoulder * screwed up elbow. * you could break anything when your tumbling. and taking into consideration how high some girls go up when they tumble it would be a fall from a pretty desent hight. including all the dangers of tumbling and how injured you could really be. stunting is equally dangerous * your flyer(the one in the air) is up on one leg or two held up by nopthing more then two people and the backspot. * if they fall from just a prep(chest level) an arm or leg could easily be broken * falling from an extention(arms straight above you head) could cause a broken neck arm leg etc. * if your flyer is in an extention but doing a one legged stunt(only holding one foot) and is pulling libs, scorpions, arabesks, or whatever the could fall * and anyone who would try to ceatch them could be injured because of the way there body would be * the flyer could also gt injured * and at this stage the bases could get really hurt to. * if your doing basket tosses(the bases make there hand into a basket looking things the flyer puts there feet on top and the bases chuck em up there) the flyer could come down 5 feet away from you if you threw crooked * she could land on her side back or head depending on what she was going to do in the air when you threw her. * if the flyer comes down off sideways but not alot she could land on a base injuring herself and them there is soooooo much more but i will leave it at that, it really is a dangerous sport, more dangerous then football by far.

Which is harder - cheerleading or football?
There is no way to determine if a sport is "harder" than another sport. So lets compare football and cheering (I'm going to use All-Star cheering here) Goal of Sport: Football: Outplay your opponent, using formations, to score the most points to win Cheerleading: Perform a 2:30 routine (composed of stunts, tumbling, jumps, and dance) without flaws to receive a higher score than your opponent. In terms of skill: Football: Football requires stamina, agility, speed Cheerleading: Cheering requires, stamina, strength, flexibility, and coordination In terms of difficulty: Not to down football, but I think its more difficult to throw a girl in the air, or do a back tuck than it is to throw a ball down a field. In terms of danger: Cheerleading is the 3rd most dangerous sport in the world. Football is the 10th Safety: Football: Padding and helmits Cheerleading: Mats, however no body protection Cheerleading has no "off season" no half- time, no time-out and no bench However, many football players lift weights and condition year round
