So sorry, I didn't realize someone died. I retract my comment about being "high" and I agree it's not funny. I just wondered where you got the information that he definitely died..it just says he hasn't been located yet in the article you posted.
No, but he fell from the ninth level and hasn't been found. Few expert divers can go from that high and survive. Some call it a jump, and it was a dumb stunt, but actually dropping in did not seem like the plan. I shudder to think of some of the dumb stunts I survived over the decades. :shakehead:

If he's alive and still hasn't been found it would be mind boggling, there isn't any place to hide where this happened at.



Accurate though. If someone is going to be irresponsible there will be consequences - that's just a fact of life.

The tragedy is when some one else pays the consequences for some one else's irresponsible actions.

You can argue the survivors are paying those consequences but you can also argue that over the long term they are now getting off cheap now that he's taken himself out of the picture.

I have so sympathy for that kind of stupidity - especially when it hurts others.

Details are still pretty sketchy, irresponsible, suicide, drunk accident, is still up in the air. Alcohol can and has made me do things I regretted later, I'm glad nobody wrote me off for my mistakes and short comings. Perfection is a hard thing to live up to and you know what they say about glass houses and walking a mile in somebody else's footsteps... especially when nobody really even knows exactly what happened yet.
