We have this term over here in Oz, "Tall Poppy Syndrome".
It stems I think, from cutting down tall somethings.
(CB Help me.)
Knocking down those highest up totem pole.
Those further down then feel better.
I read the post about this fellow who gave a DIR presentation, and then had
a problem exiting the water.
I say, how many divers out there have never had a problem?
They guy had a problem, why use that as a reason to bag him (Oz phrase).
Bye,
