I guess the Disney view of the world isn’t all what it’s cracked up to be.
I’m going to put my head into the mouth of this Great WhiteShark, done it a million times . . hold muh beer

What a Concept.

If evil is a make believe concept Mr Austin then Hitler was as good as Mother Teresa.
Dear diary:
Today the gene pool became just a little cleaner.
Stupid is supposed to hurt.

I watched the video. The lion did drag him for a bit, but according to the video he had only minor injuries.
Or maybe the global IQ just jumped a couple points.
i have tried to believe man is essentially good and circumstances make him evil. i really want to believe that but, since i teach 20th century Russian history and carry a GLOCK +1 with 2 spare mags and 2 knives pretty much all the time, obviously i am hedging my bets.
Yeah the poor crocodile hunter. I new he was going to die. Talking to poisonis snakes like they were toddlers. Surfing in the seas around Antarctica and so on. About a week before he was killed I was watching his show and looked over at my wife and said “this guy’s gonna die”. He would talk to scorpions in baby talk. I stomp the $hit outta them.
I wonder if he were spared and the others were murdered would he have a different opinion? I doubt it.
Yes. And the photographer - was it Vermont? - who went to the black bear for better pics.
You are right. The lion was killed as a result. I confused this with another story.
Yes, that is what I was thinking of. The similarity is a basic denial of the nature of the world.
Brethren, be not children in understanding: howbeit in malice be ye children, but in understanding be men. (1 Corinthians 14:20)
Timothy Treadwell (born Timothy William Dexter; April 29, 1957 – October 5, 2003) was an American bear enthusiast, environmentalist, documentary filmmaker, and founder of the bear-protection organization Grizzly People. He lived among grizzly bears of Katmai National Park in Alaska for 13 summers. At the end of his 13th summer in the park, in 2003, he and his girlfriend Amie Huguenard were killed and almost fully eaten by a 28-year-old brown bear,
Grizzly Man is a 2005 American documentary film by German director Werner Herzog... Herzog narrates and offers his own interpretations of events. He concluded that Treadwell had a sentimental view of nature, thinking he could tame the wild bears. Herzog notes that nature is cold and harsh. Treadwell's view clouded his thinking and led him to underestimate danger, resulting in his death and that of his girlfriend. - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grizzly_Man
Well put. This story has been posted so many times...but the paries involved were so assertive but blind in their wisdom...it is mind numbing....But was not unexpected.
Reminds me of Tim Snackwell, oops,Treadwell. Living among the Grizzlies was fun, until he and his girlfriend got eaten. Then not so much.
Biking in the ME is fun, until ISIS kills you. Good luck with that.
The basic concept was sound. The problem was the route chosen
