I have never really had anything to do with Jackass and such, but I do agree that the people involved with it, knew what they were getting involved with, etc etc.
Also, am not a huge fan of boxing. for no reason especially, just my lack of interest in sport of any kind, and I don't know/understand the rules etc, so tend to avoid it.
However, boxing isn't bullying, in my opinion. If you want a career in boxing, you have to be prepared to suffer a little bit for it!
I think bullying is a different thing entirely, premeditated and cruel, however in lots of cases, done for the entertainment of the bully, which maybe makes them similiar? I'm not really sure...
However, I think violence is a bit over-promoted in today's society, and we're led to believe that this is the fault of the media...
In short, I don't find bullying amusing, but nor do I really Jackass etc, funny... *shrug*
...I do laugh when people fall off chairs though.. XD
