"doesn't he/she have a picture of the airport they are taking off from and the length of the runways."
Yes, they do, if they bothered to check it. Some of the standard checklist items are aircraft weight and runway length, so how they still chose to roll down the short runway is a mystery.
People forget that even god-like pilots are like the rest of us, and they make MISTAKES...
They could have been innattentive, not paying attention while yapping about what happened Saturday night, etc,etc...
Not to minimize this at all, but pilots are humans, too..
