Dangerous sports

i see from reading the paper recently a young man was killed after being launched 100ft at 60mph from a medieval catapult.He was supposed to land safely in a net on the other side of the field, unfortunately (for him) he missed his intended target and splattered on the ground, sustaining massive spinal injuries.

the idiocy of man knows no bounds.Why do people do such stupid things?

More disturbingly, why do i laugh like a drain at stories like this?

To truly put this subject on topic:

Should the government be allowed to outlaw dangerous sports?

Or what would God think of people who throw their lives away so carelessly?

And am i Hellbound for laughing at the misfortunes of dickheads killing themselves in such a stupid manner?

There's nothing wrong with laughing at depravity.
