DevLcL said:I have no illusions about the danger of grizzly bears. It was very stupid what Treadwell did. However, at no point will I be glad that it happened or say that he deserved it. I do agree that Treadwell wanted to be a 'rockstar', as his friends put it, and that his filming was more of a confidence booster for himself then a will to save anything.
Think of the fear that would be running through you as your being eaten alive by a grizzly. I don't see how anyone can find humor in that.

If I were being eaten by a grizzly it would be because, despite me doing all the RIGHT things and being armed, the bear and fate conspired against me. It will not be an ironic finish to a spectacularly stupid series of self-righteously ignorent actions on my part that end in a burst of hypocrisy. And I won't be dragging an innocent party into the mix by representing I alone know what i'm doing in the woods.
Again, I bet those monks weren't enjoying the flames.
