Dear
editor,
I feel I must respond to your recent
article on urban exploring which gave people different perspectives about this
sport.
Urban exploring is a very fast
growing ‘sport’ as you mentioned in your article and I would agree that. People are being informed more about it
through the amazing and eye-catching moment captured by these people. Further still, this ‘sport’ encourages team
work; several people interested in this sport come together making it more
enjoyable. It is a leisure activity and
can sometimes be regarded as a relaxation or a stress relief activity. A good number of people go for their jobs
during the day, get exhausted but they still got for urban exploring. Why? As
time goes by, this activity is being regarded as a normal routine rather than
just a hobby.
On
the contrary, I have a different view about this activity. A real sport is one that involves both
enjoyment and also the safety of the participants. Climbing up on such tall buildings? It is not as easy as it looks. People forget to consider safety as their
priority. Innocent owners of such
buildings are then answerable for the injuries of these urban explorers. Advertisements and publicists draw in people
of a very tender age into this activity.
Some do not even know the basics of a such a dangerous activity; What happens
next? Accidents, injuries, false accusations to the building owners! In addition, why wait for such things to
happen and then take action. We are the
ones driving ourselves to such situations.
I agree that it is a breath-taking activity and moment but I would still
not advise people to go for this activity.
The
chances of these activities increasing are very high but I would like to
dispute this argument of allowing this sport to grow. It is not really worth it when people risk
their lives participating in such sports.
I really wish that a positive outcome is brought forward and I hope I
expressed my views and opinions pretty well. Yours Faithfully,
Kruti
Patel.
