Sure, ski jumping is a dangerous sport regardless of whether a man or a woman is performing it. But it is no more dangerous for a woman than it is for a man. How well the jumper can handle the pressure of the jump and the prevailing wind/weather conditions at the time of the jump are more significant to the danger quotient than whether the jumper is a man or a woman.
