nba injuries report
It's a familiar refrain. Security features are improving, leading to a decrease, hopefully, the loss of life or injury. However, the decrease death or injury are not necessarily proportional to the increase in safety improvement. With increased security, injuries and deaths also fell in May, but not so sharp curve that the curve of increased security.
Take the safety devices in cars, for example. We know from research that were saved lives for the safety belts and airbags. However, it could increase the safety devices in road cars with a greater sense of security which in turn leads to increased risk taking? Is it possible tend to take more risks when the material is safer because of these improvements that give a greater feeling of invincibility? I know I must be careful not to release the driver's vigilance because of the realization that my car has an inflatable rescue called Pillow.
This principle is a parallel in the mountains can be seen in any sport.
The America's highest peak, Aconcagua in Argentina, has experienced a strong increase in accidents deaths in the last 20 years. This coincides with the multiplication by six foot traffic in the mountains in the same period.
It is not difficult see the relationship between the increase in the number of climbers and a greater number of fatalities. But the important question is this. What is attracting more of candidates for Summit of South American member of the famous Seven Summits?
Mountaineering has become popular features like the team has improved and this sport became safer. For Anconcaqua, shelters and high-altitude rescue helicopter service has been added in recent years. It seems that many safety nets, most people find the courage to attempt the climb.
There is a lesson for us all. Well, there probably more than one lesson, but I want to focus exclusively on it. Whatever the sport, we must resist the temptation to increase our risk taking when we see improvements in safety equipment or other areas of sport. We have to keep threatening sense of invincibility that can come with knowledge of the characteristics of enhanced security.
