Those are accidental risks, this one is voluntary. Also to die from second-hand smoking, while not impossible, it is a long journey of breathing cigar smoke.

- CalRobert 9y agoNeither is voluntary in my example, unless "never going outside in a populated place" is a reasonable option. Anyway, I'm not really saying daredevilism is, or isn't, ok, just that comments saying it's a terrible risk are usually somewhat irrational, or at least inconsistent.
- ainiriand 9y agoMaybe I expressed myself incorrectly. I am not saying that daredevilism is not ok just because it is dangerous. You can go to any inhabited area and do what you want. The problem here is using public spaces to perform your stunts. You are effectively putting others at risk in an activity that they are not taking part in voluntarily.
- Audible_logic 9y agoStrongly agree.
- jstarfish 9y agoYou're discounting developmental risks to children not encompassing a lifetime of breathing cigar smoke. To these ends even Alabama is about to forbid smoking in cars with children present.
