That’s no news, that’s a sad information about a sad accident that makes me and everyone more sad. It’s in no way relevant for anyone other then the family, it doesn’t help to prevent further accident nor could anything be improved based on this information.
This was in Arizona and I live in Germany, if the internet keeps going to inform me about every tragedy on this glob I’m soon going to be one of them…
I disagree about it not helping to prevent at all. It’s a form of awareness of the serious dangers involved with boating. If even one person reads this and implements increased scrutiny while boating, that’s a good thing.
You really need an article about a dead child to remind you that a fast spinning metal propeller can be dangerous?
Aren’t there hundreds of warning signs with information just like that labeled on everything in the U.S.? Don’t you need some license or at least an instruction lesson to opperae a boat? Wouldn’t an article about boat safety in general be much more helpful than a story about a dead child?
Okay, one person on a boat is now more aware of the danger while ten people around the world are one step closer to mental breakdown and depression.
This article wasn’t written to help anyone, it was written to generate traffic by triggering empathy and compassion. It’s click bait.
Often one doesn’t think that something is dangerous until it’s pointed out to them. Stories are the most effective way to spell shit out to people, it’s why we started making them.
Nobody reads those.
Whether you need that, and the quality of it, depends on the state, and of course nothing’s stopping you from doing it illegally.
Who the fuck reads articles about boat safety?
I’d recommend seeking a psychiatrist for that, this did not affect me whatsoever.
You’re a very strong dude. Good for you.
But is your solution to “nobody reads signs or article” and “instructions or licences are bad quality” really that we simply need more tragic articles with no further helpful information/instruction?
