yep.. good time to become an organ donor.. considering that fishing is the most deadly sport

A bit off topic but there is no proof that "fishing" is at the top for dangerous recreational sports and of the top 75 it doesn't even rank. Deaths can occur in any activity, but that seems a bit over the top.

I think "B.A.S.E. jumping" is considered the most dangerous sport. However, there probably wouldn't be anything left intact to donate.

I suppose if you are fishing for piranha...!

I know I read it somewhere... I also hear of at least 5 fisherman that die every year, usually by drowning.  How many base jumpers do you hear of dying each year?

[LarryG]

Probably more but compared to other things it is mild in comparison. Riding a bike is number one and more people have died from just going out for a walk.....Motor Cycle accidents probably rates number one in organ donors.

I thought that was sarcasm about a dangerous sport. Like you get asked when getting a fishing license but not when you sign up to sky dive. Government makes SO much sense.

I think he was kidding about the fishing.....
