Combatives are fun as hell, and the athleticism and coordination improves with training, but yeah - all carry at least some of risk of brain injury.

Didn't 100% do it for me, but fencing might scratch that itch a litte bit. Risk is still there but much lower than hand-to-hand combat sports.

I might have to look into that, although nowadays I take care of my restlessness and scratch my masochistic itchiness by going on long runs, haha.
