Doesn't make it not sad. But if you wanna be a stoic douche then you have succeeded. Congrats!

Are you sad when a free climber / parkour person falls? The consequences of excessive and willful personal risk doesn’t garner much sympathy imo. I’m sad for the family - I’m sad for the people they’ve now hurt - not sad for them. I’ve seen people on dirt bikes on sidewalks, weaving against traffic and blowing through stops, the fact that they only hurt themselves this time is a miracle.

Actually yes I am, it is sad even if it isn't surprising. The fact that you asked your question like that was some sort of "gotcha" question is kind of scary. It's called empathy, it usually isn't circumstantial. I'm sorry that you seem to lack that
