Hanlon's Razor: Don't attribute to malice something that can be better explained by stupidity. These two aren't smart enough to conspire to come up with some ridiculous story for the purpose of fame. We already know they're stupid. Them weaving a tale just for the purpose of fame seems entirely unlikely. That's my opinion anyway.
> Don't attribute to malice something that can be better explained by stupidity.
You haven't provided an explanation grounded in stupidity. Simply agreeing that they are morons doesn't explain anything about why they created this situation and told these specific lies. You've postulated no motive, not even a stupid one.
Wrong. I have. My explanation is that things happened exactly as they perceived because they are idiots, but it’s not what happened in reality. They probably saw dolphins and thought they were sharks. They probably had 10ft waves and they thought they were 40’ waves etc. none of their story makes sense because they are idiots and can’t describd them better because they are idiots. Etc.
