This. Who has not walked away from an unexpected or unwanted outcome and not thought about the fact that as bad as it turned you were alive and walking.

Living well does not mean simply living long. It means living an enriched life. The line between fun and stupid is a bit fuzzy at times Other times it is quite clear that poor planning and execution produced a predictable outcome.

In this case a guy with everything ended up being consumed by it.
