I am amazed at how stupid people are sometimes. I am not going out on the ice when I see several other people already broke through.

funny...and a great example of what not to do

1. the ice is obviously not thick...it is in fact not all the way iced over
2. The chaos of many people not helping is common
3. One of the first lessons in first aid and rescue -- Is it safe for you, the rescuer?
don't make for more victims.
