Pretty clear, Tombs. Alves wasn't risking his life doing so.

Am more surprised you're having trouble seeing that difference.

I personally think it was brilliant and very brave. But had it been my grandmother, I'd have told her precisely how stupid it was.

Mind you, she'd have been alright. She's already dead.
