"Sounds like bunch of gumbies putting each other's lives in danger" - that seemed pretty obvious from his story.
I have a couple good friends that work on the search and rescue team, and the increasing number of stories about people putting themselves in serious danger with no self awareness is really concerning. I've unwittingly been pulled into these situations myself with said gumbies, and I'm now at the stage where I have no tolerance of it.
It's really not cool to put a bunch of other folks in danger because you did something stupid, completely ignorant of any potential danger. It's totally ok to take measured risks, with proper training/knowledge and at least some kind of preparation for handling unexpected situations.
And sometimes it's me being the gumby, which probably still happens in small doses :)
