This sort of tradition is great. You know what you're doing when you get involved, but the fun is worth the risk.

EDIT

Killed by popularity. Who would not want to go to at least watch even if taking part was out of the question? I would like to go one day. I do hope that they find away. It is world famous and really should continue. They have St Johns ambulance on site for the majority of the injuries. More serious ones can be flown out by helicopter, if the roads are jammed.
