This is why I get a little pissed when Monday-morning Quarterbacks start openly blasting a person who's sharing their crash/near-miss video - I learn (or re-learn) more from watching these videos than reading any text in a manual. Yeah, some knuckleheads deserve a good virtual slap across the cheek, but you can tell who's remaining stead-fast arrogant, and who's putting themselves out there just to help remind us all to not forget the basics.
No need for "I told you so" type comments, the person already knows. That said, I must admit I do enjoy a good old "RTFM" gang-tackle reply from time to time.
Geez, watching these videos is like watching a monster movie; We can see the wires. Why doesn't the pilot turn? They're getting closer ... closer. "Turn" we yell at the monitor. But it's too late, there's no where to go - the pilot's fully committed. We cringe as the wires pass within inches, then sigh in relief and swear that will never, ever happen to us. Until it does .... |
