You can hurt yourself just fine sledding down a hill into a tree next to a corn field.

Ignoring nuance to make a forced point is annoying af. Going to a 2,601 ft mountain with runs as long as 1.7 miles, maintained to insure high speeds for snow sports is not the same as your average mid western sledding hill. Yes, you CAN hurt yourself doing damned near anything but some contexts afford greater opportunities obviously.

We don't get snow on the hill next to a corn field here, so going sledding is a vacation, like something that someone of means does
