It is extremely sad to read about the death of a few persons that participated in the Jallikattu-an annual sports involving all the village youths in Tamilnadu. They show their bravery by agreeing to tame the bull.
It is a sport that should be banned by the Government itself. But, they too enjoy the gore under the pretext that it is the culture of a Tamilian to show his brave acts to win the hearts of village belle.
What are their pretensions? Do they still believe they live in the famous Sangam era? This sport or any sport that is a symbol of violence that leads to hatred ultimately, should be utterly condemned. Yes, I point out boxing too.
It is ridiculous to see two men fight to injure each other just after shaking hands. It is more horrible that thousands of people watch them fight and cheer them to hit more harshly.

Misplaced idea of bravery.
