Are you saying that they aren't equal? Are you saying that somehow, he is
less dead because he's "not at fault"?
The only way to be 100% certain to avoid this accident would have been to
stay out of the water.
By entering the water, he accepted that possibility that he would be
eaten, beaten, or killed by any manner of circumstances that no one had
any control over. Or that a Great White had complete control over. Or
that the Captain of his boat made a concious decision for.
The final court has ruled.
These "appeals", or any other man-made litigation, is so much noise.
If you believe that the captain who hit him is at fault, why haven't you
beaten him to death? Why haven't you sued him?
Or do you just watch, as long as it isn't YOUR ass?
Verdicts could be rendered, damages assesed, lives ruined, other people
enriched, lawyers paid, and the man would still be dead.
Because he entered the water.
Don't you see that?
Condolences to any who suffered loss.
