I’m not jealous of foolish children that risk others lives. This was an ego trip. She wanted to beat her brothers record. How noble! /s

Thanks for the /s tag - I just about dropped the hammer.

One thing that really bugs me is people who think they know better what I think then I do. No one here can read that girl’s mind, no one here can honestly state “it was an ego trip” as absolute truth. That can be stated as subjective opinion but not objective truth. The truth is it is a subjective opinion to say “it was an ego trip”. So many sacrifice objective rational truth on the altar of judgmental and subjective opinion.

The sarc tag was for "How noble" only. This was an ego trip. Her mother has stated in interviews that this girl had a sibling rivalry going with her brother Zac that completed his trip and the kid wanted to beat him.

Because you don't like my opinion? That's based on info from the family? Are you suggesting that I have no right to an opinion that's contrary to yours and you have the right to "drop the hammer" on posters that you disagree with? Odd pov for a discussion forum.
