  As pulverising hits flood social media, the spectacle is also drawing criticism for glorifying "harmful forms of masculinity".

The article from RNZ discusses the dangerous practice of "run it straight," a game where participants, often young men, attempt to run directly through obstacles or opponents, turning brute force into a form of entertainment. This reckless behavior has led to severe injuries and even fatalities, as highlighted by the tragic case of Connor Garden-Bachop, a young rugby player who died after a head injury sustained during a game. The article emphasizes the need for a cultural shift away from glorifying such dangerous acts, urging sports organizations and communities to prioritize safety and rethink the values that drive these risky behaviors.
