I hate to belittle a real-life tragedy to a cartoon analogy, but when I see headlines like this involving a guy named Julian Simpson...
Diplomat Plunges 5 Stories to His Death During Trust Game: Police?
"Simpson and a number of other people were on the roof of the building to look at the Empire State Building, which was lit up in rainbow colors in recognition of a survey that found most Australians support marriage equality, when Simpson swung a woman around, angering her husband, according to police.
Simpson later offered to prove his trustworthiness to the man by playing a game of "trust fall" on an apartment terrace.
He went to a ledge and leaned back, but as he grabbed for the man's hand, he slipped and fell to a second-floor landing, police said."
To me this bloke's death is a harsh life lesson that shows me that you should be very careful in just who you do put your trust in, especially when it comes to your life.
