This really doesn't seem that hard. Mountains and weather are part of nature, luge runs are designed by humans.
Ha
Ski runs are designed by humans.... so I do not see the distiction either... if they wanted it more safe, put in bumpers so you don't go into the trees... or just saw down every tree that is anywhere near there...
But to do that takes some of the 'fun' out for some people...
Maybe they should get rid of a sport that some guy lays flat on the top of a small board with rails and barrels down and icy slope...
And my point is that there are risks in almost ANY sport... we just don't know them all. They all can not be designed out, like the skater who cut his leg and almost died... you need a sharp edge or you can not turn...
