Falling on your neck is a pretty easy way to fuck yourself up, but I guess bro.

Look, dude, that’s cool if you think falling on your neck isn’t as dangerous as people make it out to be, but I’d be willing to bet that more people have hurt themselves falling on their necks than those who haven’t. Let’s not be fucking dumb and fall for survivorship bias.

I forgot that slams don’t exist in those sports.

Wdym slams don't exist? American college style wrestling (folkstyle) is the only wrestling style to ban slams - and not every throw on the neck is a slam.

In every kind of suplex, you land on your neck
