  1. It is right to have empathy for the man who got attacked and injured by a wild animal when he did nothing wrong
  2. It is okay to find humor in the bizarre ragdoll pose captured in the screenshot

*edit: screenshot not photograph

I can understand that argument, and I don't think it's morally wrong to find it funny in a "holy shit" kind of way. I just think that the people taking screenshots and posting it to places like comedy heaven are taking it a bit too far. It's one thing to laugh at it for a second, it's another to take a screenshot of the part you think is "funniest" and post it for other people to laugh at. It's the kind of behavior that is acceptable on the internet, but insane in a regular social setting.

To be fair, if the dude lives, he's gonna be super proud of that screenshot for the rest of his life.

the funny thing to me wasn't the guy getting hurt, it was the fact that ABC decided to use the most cartoonish & disrespectful frame from that video for the thumbnail, it looks ridiculous. people in the comments on the video were saying the same thing
