Old man dies in light plane crash I never understood the association between having lots of money and risking it all in foolhardy exercises like piloting a private plane.
Small airplanes aren't that dangerous, provided you are well trained in operating them, which possibly isn't the case here. He could be parachuting or bungee jumping or something.
True. Statistically you have a much greater chance of dying in an automobile accident.
One is tempted to define man as a rational animal who always loses his temper when he is called upon to act in accordance with the dictates of reason. - Oscar Wilde
