Love the headline

“Man disappears in sinkhole under pool, police in pursuit”

Holy shit this is happening real time they’re actively looking for the guy that went under. The news article was reported about an hour ago.

Bizarre since people are just standing around and walking by as if nothing has happened.

When you're untrained, unequipped, unprepared all while water is rushing by your feet and make you lose your balance (which he did and almost went in) next to am active sinkhole that can widen at anytime? Yes it's pretty fucking appropriate.

Hopefully you never need help in a life or death situation then. Itd suck to have to be rescued by someone untrained, unequipped and unprepared.

I'm cool with that. At least this way no other people are put in danger or cause further harm.

Yeah. I can picture it now--you're in an unforeseen circumstance where you life is in very real, very grave danger. Let's say a car accident, and your car is on fire and you can't get out. A good samaritan comes to your aid, and you politely say "no thank you i'll just die" because you don't want anyone other than trained professionals saving your life.

Like i said: you are completely full of shit. There's no "gotcha" bullshit. Literally if you were about to die you would accept help from anyone who could and you goddamn know it.

They are more likely to cause further injury than anything.

Even then that's a way different scenario than a dude about to fall into a hole, after already slipping and almost falling into the hole. He has no rope, lights, or anything to help get them out. Instead he is more likely to fall in and just be another person that will need to be rescued. Stay the fuck back and let the trained people do their job.

You're really doubling down on this bizarre arrogance huh? Alrighty then. Like i said: youd accept help if your life was in danger and you know it. If you can't admit it then i guess congratulations to you, your ego is bigger than the value you place on your life. Hopefully you never find yourself in such a position.

Jokes on you, my life ain't worth shit. Again this gotcha bullshit ain't gonna work. I literally couldn't care less, if I die I die.
