I am still surprised.

For me, its simple. I want to live. Checking my gear/wearing my seatbelt increases my chances for survival if something goes wrong.

If it takes 5 minutes to make sure you'll live another day, would you not take these 5 minutes?

Some people like risky activities because they don't want to live. It's a cultural thing.
