Re: Man dies in heroic attempt to save $52.00
Unfortunately, "automatic reactions" cause one to do things that would never occur if one had time to actually think.
I did a very stupid thing once involving my car, an incline, and getting out of it in an emergency without taking it out of gear. Luckily, all I got was a couple of pulled muscles. It could have been a great deal worse. I was so focused on the first emergency that I didn't realize I was creating a simultaneous second one.
What happened to that poor man is horrible, but my stupid moment makes me understand it.
