For me it's anything involving cars or horses, also american football, and sumo, how about anything in general that intentionally harms the players health just by playing?

Sumo wrestlers are fat but not obese like normal people that is a common myth.
First they have a lot of muscle mass and to maintain that they do a lot of exercise(and I mean a lot), and most importantly the fat is accumulated underneath the skin(subcutaneous fat) and not inside the organs(visceral fat).
Visceral fat is very bad for your health but subcutaneous fat is not as bad or at all. I think the scientific consensus is that sumo wrestlers are healthier than most Americans and probably about on par with the normal Japanese. It is not perfect once they retire they suffer a bit if they don't control the weight, but during their career they are healthy.
