I wouldn't wanna do it, and I'll try almost anything once!
    Flying a space shuttle to orbit/to the moon fits all these conditions and then some, but I don't consider it a sport. There is some competition involved too... it's called, "can I somehow beat every natural law that's trying to kill me while pursuing this activity".

    Your original statement did not include "same time" of which, time can be argued to be relative anyway.

    For me Poker is not a sport, I see it as a game. For someone it maybe sport, and for pro players you could say that it is a job

    It is any of various card games played by two or more players who bet on the value of their hands. Recently i started watching one game show names High stakes poker. After watching few episodes, i am like big fan of it. Now i am regular viewer of this show and eagerly waiting for high stakes poker season 7 episode 12.
