Is Stupidity Illegal?

Well, this week a man was the first to survive going over Niagara Falls without any safety device. What I'm curious about is why police were seen walking him away in handcuffs. Is it illegal to go over the falls? Did he cross the Canadian/American boarder without a passport? Or was he drinking and swimming?

The other interesting item to the story is that it talks about a dozen daredevils who have attempted the plunge, and the unknown numbers of suicides. So what separates the daredevil and the suicidal person, besides a fancy outfit of course?

Currently listening to: Nothing
