9 . The World’s Most Dangerous Awesome Sport Destinations

If you’re looking for an extra challenging place to do sports when traveling, you will definitely want to visit these places below.

Burj AI Arab, Dubai.

The world’s highest tennis court is situated 1,000 feet above the ocean standing atop the fourth highest hotel in the world—Burj AI Arab in Dubai. The tennis court is circular in shape and when no session is at play, it doubles as a helipad (直升机场).

Camp Bonifas, South Korea

You would think that golf isn’t a very dangerous sport, and if you go to the Scottsdale golf course or those amazing Hawaii golf courses then that is probably true, which is why this golf course might blow your mind.

Camp Bonifas is in South Korea right on the border to North Korea. When they built the course they realized that they wouldn’t be able to fit 18 holes in the camp, so they decided to build a 1-hole golf course surrounded by LIVE minefields (布雷区) on three sides.

Blue Hole, Egypt

The Blue Hole is a submarine sinkhole at a depth of 130 meters. It is known as the most dangerous diving spot because of the large number of deaths that have occurred from people diving in the hole.

Many inexperienced or overconfident divers sometimes have trouble finding the tunnel connecting the Blue Hole and open water and end up descending too deep…!

Ponte Brolla, Switzerland

Ponte Brolla is famous as one of the most famous, extreme and dangerous cliff diving, or “tombstoning” spots in the world.

Several World High Diving Federation championships have been hosted here, where the divers face a 26-meter jump into ice cold water.

This sport might look like a fun and easy thing, but it’s not nicknamed “tombstoning” for nothing.
