Muitas pesquisas já foram realizadas no mundo sobre a taxa de acidentes nos esportes e o paintball é considerado um dos mais seguros, com uma taxa insignificante de acidentes, que não chega nem perto de outros esportes como futebol, ciclismo, artes marciais, etc. Quanto à violência, no paintball o contato físico é contra as regras, o que já elimina muitos problemas. http://www.arenapaintball.com.br/

On September 11, 2001, shortly after terrorists flew airplanes into the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center and into the Pentagon, the forty passengers and crewmembers on United Airlines Flight 93 fought a battle in the sky over Pennsylvania. These forty heroes won their battle against terrorists and thwarted a planned attack on our nation’s capital, saving countless numbers of lives, but sacrificing their own in a field just east of Pittsburgh, in Somerset County, Pennsylvania.
Because of the quick and determined actions of the passengers and crew, Flight 93 was the only one of the four hijacked aircraft that failed to reach the terrorists' intended target on September 11, 2001. The passengers and crew showed unity, courage, and defiance in the face of adversity. The Flight 93 National Memorial will be a place dedicated to the memory of these great heroes; a place for future generations to learn about their actions; a place for healing and understanding.
