I certainly will not be so willing to post on there now, just so some know-it-alls can pick at my carcass in an effort to bask in their own already over-inflated egos
Really, sometimes I wonder where you guys get off .................... bit close to Dagenham perhaps |
So what's the point of a forum where people post trip reports about near misses? Why should we let the lesson learnt stand if there have overlooked valid points that everyone can learn from?
Bit pointless to have such a sub-forum. Rather than "I learned from that" we should just call it "The sky is blue the grass is green, trip reports".
No doubt my view will of course will be assumed to be because I've done GUE training and can't think for myself! The myriad of mistakes that caught Si out all began long before he got in the water. As the BSAC incident pit slide puts it the sides of the pit get steeper the further you go and it becomes progressively harder to work your way out.
I'm glad he and his two buddies made it out. It's just a shame that the accident analysis thought process which has followed since the thread has been seen as negative when I'm sure the idea behind it was merely positive.
