Cheerleading IS a deadly sport. This is because of the way girls are thrown up in the air, the way they move, the way they catch/way they're caught. Say you were doing a full twisting layout and landed on your head YOU COULD DIE. Say you fell from a super hard stunt and you fall and isn't catch. So yeah it is deadly, and it is the 2nd most dangerous sport in the world so YES its also a sport.

I disagree with the above answer. Cheerleading does involve some seemingly "death-defying" stunts. However, good cheerleaders are taught the correct way to perform those stunts and how to do them to minimize injuries. Just like in any other sport, injuries and accidents can occur. As a former cheerleader and current coach, I have seen and experienced a multitude of bumps and bruises, but it's all a part of what we do and what we love. Football players take the big hits and shrug them off; cheerleaders do the same, but without the benefit of helmets. Overall, while some stunts cheerleaders do may seem dangerous, proper training and instruction make them relatively safe to perform, no matter what the setting.

Yes cheerleading is sooo deadly u can die from falling from the pirimids they do and other stunts too
