Heya Frnd ........☺

★ When the athlete land , his muscles have to bare a huge pressure.

★ The hard surface of the land increases the amount of pressure levied.

★ This in result can harm the athlete's leg and can lead to fracture.

★ Sand works as a shock absorber which reduces the pressure on his leg.

★ Thus, to counter this pressure, an athlete prefer to land on sand.
