I am quite sure the typical American response would not be one of..'Oh, death by mis-adventure for sure'.
I can't speak for anyone else, but for me, yeah... Anywhere in the world that an individual chooses to climb onto a pile of rubble being pushed by a bulldozer, and ends up being hurt/killed/maimed by the bulldozer, I'm going to feel like they took their chances, and lost.

Again, I support their choice to take those type of chances, and may even share thier cause, I may even feel that there are causes worth giving my life for... But getting run over by a bulldozer that you climbed in front of?
