The hazards of backyard fights are many, these are arranged battles that take place in a secluded area with no rules or equipment. They are organized for the entertainment of other who gather and cheer while tow people are beating each other.

Backyard fights became more popular when people starting filming them and posting them on the internet. People get a thrill by posting fights caught on tape on places like YouTube. The number of people who watch these videos is staggering. Most of the viewers of illegal fights are children. You can read their comments in the section after the video. The kids think that these fights are funny and they comment on how poorly the loser fought.

The news of backyard fights is spread from one individual to another by word of mouth. The people who come and watch the conflicts bet on the outcome and enjoy the show. Because these brawls are illegal, law enforcement is now trying to use the videos to prosecute the organizers and the fighters. States are looking to pass laws that will make it illegal to film and post these fights to the internet.

The videos of the backyard fights are advertised on the internet using words such as, watch free amazing fight videos, or watch brunette girls kick, punch, scratch, and pull each other's hair. Having these on the internet alone is disturbing but knowing that children are watching these fights and cheering them on is disgusting.

When I put the words backyard fights into my search engine I got over one hundred thousand sites that offer viewing of these fights. They say that there are new fights to be seen every day. Some of the sites also have knife fights available to watch.

Many of the backyard fights end with an ambulance coming after the crowd has scattered, this is captured on film too. No one ever stops to help the person who is hurt, everyone just seems to leave in a hurry. People seem to like the reality of the fight, the thrill of knowing that anything can happen because there are no rules, but not one person likes to help the injured .

People have always had a morbid curiosity, like looking at an accident on the highway, or wanting to see what happened from an earthquake or tornado. The difference with watching backyard fights is that people know that this was arranged and they are purposely there to watch what action may take place.
