Question

which of the following sports has an extremely high death rate?
a. base jumping
b. swimming
c. skydiving
d. rock climbing

Explanation:

BASE jumping involves jumping from fixed objects (buildings, antennas, spans, earth) with a parachute, and due to its high - risk nature (proximity to objects, shorter time to deploy the parachute), it has an extremely high death rate compared to swimming (a relatively common and less - lethal sport when proper safety is followed), skydiving (which has safety measures and lower death rates per jump compared to BASE jumping), and rock climbing (which has risks but generally lower death rates than BASE jumping).

Answer:

A. BASE jumping
