[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can’t believe the kids mom allowed it?! I mean if a husband wants to risk a life you can’t necessarily stop him but most moms wouldn’t let DH risk their kid’s life. Unless it was one of those you’re 18, I can’t stop you households. But usually Pakistani households aren’t like that - though I guess only 1/2 Pakistani here.[/quote]

Your comment reveals your hindsight bias. They almost certainly didn’t know how risky this was. We only know now due to the intense investigations related to the incident. [/quote]

DP: It doesn’t take “hindsight” or “bias”  or “intense investigations related to the incident “ to get that being sealed into a small container to go exploring a wreck — inherently unpredictable— with a limited supply of air, and few if any specific plans in the event of an emergency is way beyond what most people would view as “risky” — on multiple levels.

Life is all about risk/rewards. That’s what makes us humans different than our closest cousins the chimps. Without it, we are no different. Want a banana PP? [/quote]

Totally agree. Just the other day I rode a motorcycle in the dark with no helmet. The thrill I experienced reminded me of how grateful I am that humans evolved to take risks like this. [/quote]

I drove past a smashed motorcycle and a body under a sheet on I 95 recently.  Near Dale City.

Glad you are happy with your choices.  I just hope the recklessness of people like you doesn't impact the rest of us.[/quote]

PP here and I was being sarcastic. The idea that what makes us human and more evolved than chimps is taking stupid risks is so absurd. [/quote]
