I don’t even know how you begin to rank these. Or what “hardest” means.

Soccer is harder than rugby?

Hey, acting is a very difficult skill that takes years to master

Much more skill involved and the list doesn't put an emphasis on strength.

Probably true. But you can say that about certain aspects of all those sports
