Boy, talk about a really stupid and pointless way to die.

No one knows the exact circumstances, but I will say if you're not trained and prepared, you're likely to get seriously injured or killed...or get others killed searching for you. It's not a laughing matter. Everyone should be learning from this tragedy. I didn't know the guy or the many others that have died in similar situations. But I will say after being in extreme desserts, the place can be as rewarding as punishing. To those making light of it, you have no idea the suffering and anguish he felt nor the ramifications on those left behind. It's a horrible way to die and extremely frustrating upto the point expiry. ***Thanks for lessen of relevancy on the subject of basic commonsense. I too agree that it's not a laughing matter to not "think". It's very true- survival of the fittest does apply whether we like it or not.
