Like Tony said on his comercial.....NASCAR. You sit in a car, going in a big circle at 150 plus miles per hour, no breaks, its hot, no radio and you have to hold it in for 2-4 hours. Try that.




yep,Nascar drivers have it the toughest.not only all the stuff you mentioned but they also have to fight the car to keep control of it and they have to be able to handle all the G-Forces and not pass out.





You guys are so naive... Lol they don't hold it in for the whole race... Their suits are designed similar to a cathader but not to that extreme... Lol they go in their suits... Don't believe me? Do some research...

i am with the other two on Rodeo rider... But not just them... Equestrians in general... Nothing like trying to control a 1200-2000 pound animal that still has wild instincts in the rodeo or show or jumping ring... Plus it is the least noticed olympic sport in the world... And the toughest... You use every single muscle in your body when you ride...

We have a motto when it comes to riding.... If it don't hurt... You ain't doing it right...

Sorry ... trying playing hockey Defense... talk about stopping pucks going between 100-120 miles an hour ?? WITH not as much padding on .. skating full speed in one direction THEN the oppiste direction ALL the while fighting off guys , or girls ( sorry ), that want to implode you in the END BOARDS .. all the while thinking 3,4, 5 steps ahead of everyone else .... try it... it is nowhere as easy as it looks .. I KNOW ...

Same thing in F1, add in the many twists and turns, even tougher...

you should watch a real motorsport, not just bilboards going around in circles. did you know that formula one cars can pull up to 5 g's in a turn? and that all over the world they have 24 hour races(not talking about f1 anymore), le mans being the most famous. during these races they'll have 3 drivers at max, some teams still use 2.

evidence of formula one's difficulty is michael schumacher himself. he's still able to outdrive the majority of all nascar drivers, yet he can't compete anymore in formula one. it's amazing he stayed in the sport for so long, he really is one of the best drivers ever.

also soccer goalkeeper.

you gotta be absolutely nuts be a keeper. its much like a hockey goaltender minus the padding and swich small puck for size 5 soccer ball. these guys dive right into the fray, often being kicked and cleated all over by players trying to score and all of this just to get the ball.


I agree i used to be one :smile:

I have to say that ice hockey take strength, skill, hand/eye cordination, and extreme physicall conditioning so I would have to say hockey defensemen.

Midfielder in Lacrosse, play offense and defense and running your balls off...Or, the goalie, because limited padding and fast speed of the ball coming at you...

I say hockey goalie not only do you have 100+ MPH pucks coming at you but it their at the blue line you have to pick up and sometimes through a crowd then you get the ones that come out of the crowd those are had to pick up I know I play goalie and you don't have to be big to be one. Example J.S. Giguere on the Ducks he's only like five seven and is in the top ten in wins
