In most cases i imagine going to football is more dangrous for the fans than it is for the players.
And for all the wrong reasons.

Obviously having a discussion on this topic here is gonna be all one-way but i will say this just to offer a different perspective: Football clearly isn't as potentially deadly as flinging huge bits of metal around a track but it would be stupid to dismiss football as completely danger-free... just ask Petr Cech for example. Also, at least football doesn't have such a prominent amount of political BS constantly following it around. Diving is bollocks though, it's people like Ronaldo, Robben and Drogba who basically ruin the majorities' reputation, not all footballers play like that.

Ran 4 miles tonight and as soon as we arrived at the destination we played football.
But Motorsport is better, I agree
And "how do you swallow your tongue", sorry mate but you know very little if you didnt know you could do that.
There have been cases of footballers dying on pitch after suffering cardiac arrests but really these things can happen in any sport. There's no inherent danger that is unique to football, unlike motorsport.
so statistics like that go up simply because there's more people invovled.
