Posted by A Through Z Explorations It always surprises me at the amount of negative feedback others give to this type thrill seeking by those who choose to live life to the extreme. Calling him an "idiot" ......

I'll address this since I am the one who called him an idiot. And then we'll get back on topic.
Understand that when I called this guy an idiot, it is not a "personal" attack on him or the choices he makes. He can do this 10 times a day for all I care. But to do something like this, with risks this extreme, putting your life on the line, for nothing more than a video and being able to say you did it, is in my opinion, an idiotic thing to do.
It is an opinion. My opinion. I see a lot of things that in my opinion are idiotic. Doesn't mean the guy doesn't have a right to do it. He does. And I would never try to squash his right to do it.
His luck will run out at some point, and he will probably die. And then what? Was it worth it? I doubt it. So I stand by what I said. To do something like this, in MY opinion, is idiotic.
We now return you to your regularly scheduled programming.
