What's the point of showing you can slide a stone along some ice, or drive a car very fast in a circle 100 times? But people do it.

Nobody was hurt except the pilot, and it was his choice to try it.

Because it was there.

What's the point of most light aircraft / fast cars / motorcycles / small boats / climbing mountains / jumping out of serviceable aircraft?

Thing is, someone will now come along and insist all future attempts at this sort of thing are banned.
Sad little tw@ts that they are.

As long as he said watch this before hand I don't see the problem.

It’s “Hold my beer and watch this….”

Perhaps should have just ducked his head instead, they are quite small and pilots heads stick out the top.

Light aircraft- bimbling about
fast cars- posing around in
Motorcycles - get to wear leather and hang out with biker guys
Small boats - struggling with that one
Mountain climbing - Instagram subject matter
Jumping out if aircraft - I’m sure it’s quite the rush

What's the point of rhetorical questions?

I don't know why you're flogging this particular dead horse.
It's obvious why people do it.
It's obvious you disapprove.
Isn't that enough? Or is it that Something Must Be Done?

If Saaby is getting his knickers in a twist at the prospect of some venerable antiques plodding underneath a bit of bunting, he's going to blow a gasket when he sees this....

Maybe when they’re flying under 20f high bunting they are imagining themselves flying upside down under the Bridge of Chains?
