I'm not being obtuse, I am being sardonic. Meanwhile, I am not a mountaineer, no one said that I had to be in order to hunt deer, and I have avoided an accident for fifty years, and it wasnt hard. I even enjoy being outdoors, and am rarely anxious.

I maintain the risks of being in the bush are much lower than you clumsy types are making out it is. Reading articles like that do not concern me. 48 people died scuba diving last year. THats something to worry about.
