In case you didn't see the rescue this morning, a woman had to be removed from the pulley of a sky scraper crane this morning. She had not only climbed up the crane but somehow made her way down a cable to the pulley. The haven't said whether she was merely a thrill seeker, high/intoxicated, or suicidal.
Thing is, even if it was the latter, I find it hard to feel sorry for her. After all, she put the lives of two men - who likely have families counting on them - at significant risk. I just am having trouble sympathizing. I feel tremendous guilt for that.
I have had SI and have hurt myself, but never would I consider taking someone down with me. Call me unempathetic or not compassionate, but I am really quite very angry about this.
