Right O chap! I think though by doing the extreme he hopes we will just do the obvious and not limit our thinking. I would trust myself to Bear with no crew. I love Dick Cheney, think he should run for Prez. However, I would not hunt with him, ever!
The behavior that gives me the greatest “pucker factor” is when he decides to squeeze down into a cave where the only light he has is a torch that will burn for just a few minutes, there is no indication that an outlet exists and once going down, there is no way to get back the way you came.
In real life, that kind of risk will get you killed probably 99 times out of 100!
