Is the luge still an Olympic sport? If so, I'd probably say that's the easiest to get into. I'm sure there's actually a lot of technique and nuance to it, but it really does look like you just kinda ride on a really dope sled.

That's bobsled. The luge is much smaller and scarier. I would imagine the risk of death is much higher in luge than bobsled, but much lower than skeleton.
