Because of love, I am fearless

This is the 42nd topic in Xu Yiyi’s 3000 Questions in the World.

There was a piece of news a few days ago that made people sigh.

It is about a professional female wingsuit flying athlete who lost contact while taking part in the wingsuit flying challenge in Zhangjiajie.

It was finally confirmed that he had died, and the reason seemed to be related to the failure of the parachute to open properly.

It is said that if you often walk by the river, your shoes will not get wet. But seeing the comments from some netizens is chilling.

They ridiculed the extreme athlete, whose pseudonym is An An, for being unprepared. They also said that she was irresponsible for her own life and irresponsible for her family.

Yiyi has something to say about this.

First of all, I think many people actually have misunderstandings about extreme sports.

According to an incomplete statistics, in fact, overall, accidental death among extreme athletes due to the dangers of extreme sports itself certainly exists, but we do not. As high as you can imagine.

I don’t know if you have watched the very popular documentary "Free Rock Climbing" last year, which tells the true story of the great free rock climbing leader Alex Honnold.

He mentioned in his confession that in fact, before every rock climbing, he would make preparations for months or even years. It seemed that he was crazy about climbing with his bare hands. In fact, every route and every step was different. The movements, and even every crack in the stone where a foot can be placed, are calculated, counted and organized very precisely.

So for ordinary people, what seems to be an impossible task is actually completing an exam in his eyes, but the only challenge is that this exam cannot be failed, otherwise it will be life-threatening. cost.

Honnold's answer to this was that he said that of course he knew the dangers involved, but he said, isn't it a wonderful thing to be able to treat your hobby as a career that you can make a living from? It's not a pity to lose your life one day because of it.

Some people will definitely refute, let your family think and do whatever you want. In fact, this problem has no solution, and in my opinion, it is not the same thing.

What they are talking about now is actually their love and responsibility for life.

Because of their love, An An and Honnold are fearless. Because of their love, they dare to take great risks and do sports that only one in ten million people in the world dare to engage in.

In my opinion, they are not irresponsible for their own lives, blooming like a flower, even if it is only short-lived, it is also the most dazzling existence at that moment.

Let’s talk about the “irresponsibility to family members” criticized by many gangsters.

First of all, no one has the ability to be responsible for people other than themselves, because it is always impossible for us to completely control and interfere with people other than ourselves, so whether the outsider is our family or Strangers, we can only do our best.

Taking a step back, the protagonist in the story has actually made a living through his hobbies, received rewards in money and reputation, and fulfilled his obligation to support his parents.

They are not gangsters without serious jobs. In contrast, although those gangsters are still alive and well, are they responsible for their families?

Yiyi has always felt that if you have not experienced other people's lives, you have no qualifications to evaluate, ridicule, and accuse others.

What’s more, they are such a group of “masters” who love life, nature, and their own lives. In fact, from a certain perspective, Yiyi is very envious of them for having the courage and ability to smile. Flying freely in life, isn't this success?

(Finally, in order to prevent the arrogance of the baristas again, I would like to emphasize that this article does not encourage everyone to engage in dangerous extreme sports, so as not to cause wrong guidance.
