Someone needs to die

I think that's going to be the only way people get the point that they shouldn't walk on river ice.
I mean, at midnight? If there was only a way to up the stupid factor of walking on a river...oh, I know, let's do it in the dead of night in a snow storm.
I was probably involved.

So, no one has died that you know of so you want someone to die to show other people how dangerous it is? If no one has died then how is it dangerous?
Way to prove my point

Playing Russian Roulette (putting one cartridge in a six-chamber revolver, spinning the chambers, aiming at your own head, and pulling the trigger) is dangerous. If you watched twenty people do it and live, you might think it's safer than the 1/6 chance of dying inherent in the setup. But it's just because you are bad at probability and statistics.
Dangerous isn't determined by the number of people who have succeeded in beating the odds.
1. Going on ice is fun.
