Wow, a 17 year old did something... Why do people point out age, like we are supposed to be impressed. If it was a 2 year old that did this, I would be impressed.
While the act of what this person did is neat, but pointing out the age seems like useless info for a title.
- m-p-3 6y agoIt's still relevant, a 17 years old teenager doesn't have the same resources and experience than someone in his 40s.
- xellisx 6y agoActually doesn't make sense. I know a lot of 40 year old unskilled (in this type of activity) people that don't have a lot of resources available to them. If they did it, it would still be impressive, no matter what age they are. Teenagers have advantages over 40 year olds, the major ones are free time and energy.
- perl4ever 6y agoThere's nothing odd about this sort of human interest story in a local newspaper about what high school students are doing; I think maybe it just sounds odd in the context of a global audience on the internet.
