What would you do?

This guy's 15 minutes will soon be up, but I have to wonder...heroic and brave? Or stupid and lucky?

I'm going for dumb and lucky. I'm thinking I might do it if it was a little kid, but only because I now know that there will be room.

Does it matter? :) A man is alive today who wouldn't have been otherwise. I tend to think most heroic acts of this sort occur based on sheer instinct -- either someone acts, or they don't. There's no time to weigh all the consequences in the split second they have before deciding. Most people choose to do nothing.

So I vote for "heroic and brave." :)
