Yeah. In the old days people didn't have the internet to show them all the different things that could be done and thus would learn from those who knew what they were doing.

My activity of choice is a pretty safe one: hiking. The number of idiots I see out there who know nothing of wilderness safety or what they're getting into, though, is insane. Most of them have no plan B if there's a problem.
