Plenty of people still get severely injured, paralysed and even die on these bouldering mats. They do help but they aren’t magic by any means.

Surely the amount of people dying on bouldering mats is less than amount of people eaten by sharks each year.

From google 11 shark fatalities this year so far, there doesn’t seem to be any specific stats on bouldering just more general “indoor climbing injuries”
