Your position is similar to why I stopped watched NFL games. I get that players choose to play (for money), but at the end of the day, I am unwilling to contribute to brain damage.

I think there's a pretty big difference between long-term brain damage and bruises though.

Stuntpeople aren't getting blows to the head, generally speaking.

That is not what the research shows. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9835670/

“One hundred seventy-three performers (80%) indicated at least one head impact/head whip during their stunt career. Of these, 86% exhibited concussion-like symptoms and 38% received one or more concussion diagnoses. Sixty-five percent continued working with concussion-like symptoms.”
